Why does my BQM have a DELETED suffix on it?


[link to this post]
 
Hi - been using BQM's for a while and I've come back to some of my monitors and I can see that 2 of them now have a DELETED suffix in the name? One of them is the data for my old Virgin box - which I was keeping for a bit to show how bad it was before. However my other one is for my Community Fibre monitoring - and I could see that my IP address had changed at some point, which I corrected - however the label on my monitor continues to show DELETED on it, even though it looks to be collecting data. What is this? Is it just a bug?

They automatically disable BQM's that are no longer responding after a set time period (old I.P's) and they delete BQM's for old monitors after a set period of time.

If you want to keep an older BQM for a long time period, especially after it has stopped responding, I would suggest downloading the images and saving them elsewhere.

ThinkBroadband don't have unlimited resources so periodically they will need to disable and delete older BQM's to minimize the space they consume.

So if you put in new details on the existing monitor - it seems to re-incarnate the monitor, but you can't get rid of the "DELETED" suffix.

I guess its safer to just create a new monitor then?
