Local Media
The supported local recording media are displayed in the
Storage overview
field.
Activating and Configuring Storage Media
The storage overview displays the available storage media. You can select individual media or
iSCSI drives and transfer these to the
Managed storage media
list. You can activate the
storage media in this list and configure them for storage.
1.
In the
Recording media
section, click the
iSCSI Media
and
Local Media
tabs to display
the applicable storage media in the overview.
2.
In the
Storage overview
section, double-click the required storage medium, an iSCSI
LUN or one of the other available drives. The medium is then added to the
Managed
storage media
list. In the
Status
column, newly added media are indicated by the status
Not active
.
3.
Click the
Set
button to activate all media in the
Managed storage media
list. In the
Status
column, these are indicated by the status
Online
.
4.
Check the box in the
Rec. 1
or
Rec. 2
column to specify which data stream should be
recorded on the storage media selected.
Rec. 1
stores Stream 1,
Rec. 2
stores Stream 2.
This means that you can record the standard data stream on a hard drive and record
alarm images on another drive, for example.
5.
Check the boxes for the
Overwrite older recordings
option to specify which older
recordings can be overwritten once the available memory capacity has been used.
Recording 1
corresponds to Stream 1,
Recording 2
corresponds to Stream 2.
Formatting Storage Media
You can delete all recordings on a storage medium at any time.
1.
Click a storage medium in the
Managed storage media
list to select it.
2.
Click the
Edit
button below the list. A new window will open.
3.
Click the
Formatting
button to delete all recordings in the storage medium.
4.
Click
OK
to close the window.
CAUTION!
Each storage medium can only be associated with one user. If a storage medium is already
being used by another user, you can decouple the user and connect the drive with the IP
AutoDome. Before decoupling, make absolutely sure that the previous user no longer needs
the storage medium.
CAUTION!
If older recordings are not allowed to be overwritten when the available memory capacity has
been used, the recording in question will be stopped. You can specify limitations for
overwriting old recordings by configuring the retention time (see
Section 10.41 Advanced
Mode: Retention Time, page 97
).
CAUTION!
Check the recordings before deleting and back up important sequences on the computer's
hard drive.
