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.
