11.3 Data Partitioning for Video and POS/ATM Alarm Video Footage
Data partitioning has been added to VIGIL Server allowing for better user input as to how data is saved to the
hard drive. Data partitioning allows you to set up logical divisions between standard alarm video files,
POS/ATM alarm video files, and normally recorded video. This allows the video scavenging process to skip
alarm video files and allows you to save these types of video footage for longer periods of time.
Instead of copying alarm footage under the normal areas for storage, it will be recorded to a special folder that
is considered a separate entity. Normal video storage is scavenged and deleted as new footage is written,
however these special folders are not scavenged normally; they will retain as much data as you have allotted
for them in the Media Control window. Once they reach capacity, they will be scavenged, and the oldest video
data will be removed to write new data. Since alarm and POS/ATM alarm data is often much rarer, this data
can have a much longer ‘shelf life’ on your DVR, depending on the size of the partition you create.
Note: This feature is not enabled by default.
