Replacing a Recording Server
If a recording server is malfunctioning and you want to replace it with a new server, while letting the new server inherit
the settings of the old, malfunctioning recording server, do the following:
1. Retrieve the recording server ID from the old recording server;
a) In the Management Client's Site Navigation pane select
Recording Servers
, in the Overview pane select the
old, required recording server.
b) In the Management Client's Properties pane, select the
Storage
tab.
c) Press and hold down the CTRL key on your keyboard while selecting the
Info
tab.
d) Copy the recording server ID found in the lower part of the
Info
tab. Do not copy
ID =
but only the ID itself.
IMPORTANT:
Stop the Recording Server service (see "Management Server Service and Recording Server
Service" on page 198) on the old recording server
,
then in Windows'
Services
set the service's
Startup type
to
Disabled.
2. Replace recording server ID on the new recording server:
a) Make sure that the Recording Server service is stopped (see "Management Server Service and Recording
Server Service" on page 198) and disabled on the old recording server.
It is very important that you do not start two recording servers with identical IDs at the same time.
b) On the new recording server, open an explorer and go to C:\ProgramData\OnSSI\OnSSI RC-E Recording
Server or the path where your recording server is located.
c) Open the file
RecorderConfig.xml
.
d) Delete the ID stated in between the tags
<id>
and
</id>
.
