Milestone Husky - Administrator Manual
Letter representing the drive in question, for example C:.
Select what you want to use the drive for:
Not in use: Do not use the drive.
Recording: Only available if the drive is a local drive on the
surveillance system server. Network drives cannot be used for
recording. Use the drive for storing recordings in the regular
database for the system.
Archiving: Use the drive for archiving. For archiving, it is
generally a good idea to use a drive which has plenty of space.
With dynamic path selection for archives, you do not have to
worry about drive space.
Rec. & Archiving: Only available if the drive is a local drive on
the surveillance system server. Network drives cannot be used
for recording. Use the drive for storing recordings in the regular
database for the system as well as for archiving.
Path to the folder in which the camera's database should be
stored. Default is C:\MediaDatabase. To browse for another
folder, click the browse icon next to the required cell. You can
only specify a path to a folder on a local drive. You cannot
specify a path to a network drive. If you use a network drive, you
cannot save recordings if the network drive becomes unavailable.
If you change the recording path, and you have existing
recordings at the old location, you are asked whether you want to
move the recordings to the new location, leave them at the old
location, or delete them.
If you have several cameras, and several local drives are
available, you can improve performance by distributing individual
cameras' databases across several drives.
Only editable if not using dynamic paths for archiving (see "About
archiving" on page 126). Path to the folder in which the camera's
archived recordings should be stored. Default is
C:\MediaDatabase.
To browse for another folder, click the browse icon next to the
relevant cell. If you change the archiving path, and there are
existing archived recordings at the old location, you are asked
whether you want to move the archived recordings to the new
location (recommended), leave them at the old location, or delete
them. Note that if you move archived recordings, your system
also archives what is currently in the camera database. In case
you wonder why the camera database is empty just after you
have moved archived recordings, this is the reason.
Amount of unused space left on the drive.
