ChunkPurge setting in NBI file

Postby flat_beer » Mon Sep 08, 2014 10:13 pm

I'm trying to download something that is incomplete on my primary and backup servers. I want to borrow a friends "better" server for a few hours to fill in the blanks. I also have a slow net connection and want to pre-download all that I can. Is there a way to increase the time till the auto chunk purge occurs? I see there is a ChunkPurge=3 in my NBI. Is that the correct setting to change and what value means what?

I see ChunkPurge is in 2 location in my NBI file. [SPOOLER] and [SETTINGS] which place is that it needs to be changed?

Hum... I also see a CacheTimeout=14 under [SETTINGS].... maybe that's what I need to change?

Thank you

[SETTINGS]
PurgeDays=N

Should do it. It defaults to 2. If you increase it, it should keep things around for N days.
