Name:
A name for the server in question. If required, you can later change the name through the RC-E
Management Client.
RC-E management server:
The IP address (example: 123.123.123.123) or host name (example: ourserver) of
the management server to which the server in question should be connected. If required, you can later change
the management server IP address/host name as part of the basic administration on the Recording or Failover
Server service.
MediaDB:
The path to the server in question's media database. The media database is the recording server's
default storage area, i.e. the default location in which recordings from connected cameras are stored in individual
camera databases. If required, you can later change the path, and/or add paths to more storage area locations,
from the RC-E Management Client.
When should I choose a particular user account instead of a predefined?
If using network drives you should
always specify a particular user account (with access to the network drives in question). Otherwise the service in
question is unable to handle the required network drives.
