To avoid a bottleneck on the Archiver or Auxiliary Archiver due to disk throughput, you can enable the role to write simultaneously to multiple disks.
What you should know
CAUTION:
Nothing prevents other applications from using the disk space set aside
for the Archiver or Auxiliary Archiver, so it is recommended to assign a disk that is
not shared with other applications to these roles. In cases where multiple Archivers
share the same server, use a separate disk for each.
Procedure
- From the Config Tool homepage, open the Video task and click the Roles and units view.
- Select the Archiver or Auxiliary Archiver role, and click the Resources tab.
-
To create a disk group, click Add group (
).
- In the Disk group column, click New disk group and type a name for the group.
-
Click Camera distribution (
).
- In the Camera distribution dialog box, divide the cameras between the disk groups by selecting them one at a time and moving them with the arrow buttons.
