Storage
The
Storage
page allows you to configure the system’s hard drives for video storage and monitor the health of drives and
RAID arrays. Up to three tabs are available on the Storage page:
The
Drive
tab displays all the installed drives, their capacity, available storage space, and status.
The
Volume
tab displays the status of the RAID array, if configured on the system.
The
Hardware
tab allows you to monitor attributes of each hard drive and RAID controller.
The following features are available on the
Drive
tab:
1.
The system drive (“C:\” in Windows, or “/mnt/edvr/0” in Linux) is reserved for the exacqVision software and
operating system and is not enabled for video storage. Do not record video to this drive.
2.
The storage drives are listed below the system drive.
3.
To enable a drive for video storage, select its Enabled: box.
4.
To adjust the maximum amount of drive space that can be used for data storage, adjust the Video Space slider
for each storage drive.
NOTE:
Performance can decrease if you set the Video Space slider greater than 85%.
5.
Used Space displays how much of the hard drive capacity is currently full.
6.
Status displays the current state of the hard drive.
7.
Oldest Content indicates the age of the oldest video recorded on this system. This does not affect cameras
added in the Expiration Configuration section.
8.
Expiration Configuration allows you to set minimum or maximum time periods for video from each camera to be
stored. For example, you could configure one camera’s video to be stored for at least 30 days before it is
deleted, and another camera’s to be deleted after no more than 7 days.
