The DSAdmin Directory Tree
A DS NVR/NVs system is a collection of servers, VAUs, and cameras, which
the DSAdmin program organizes into a directory tree. This tree illustrates the
relationship between all the parts and allows you to add, subtract, or modify
any of them.
Look at the sample tree in Figure 1. At the top of the tree is a directory named
after the client system—in this case, 17PC. Under 17PC is the Available
Systems directory, which contains a list of all servers available for the client to
connect to—in the figure, the available system is DS NVs.
Under each server are several directories containing all the cameras, VAUs,
zones, and other hardware and configurations that are available through the
selected server.
