Storage Management

7.1.1

Device manager

An external Video Recording Manager (VRM) system for the unit is configured via the
Configuration Manager. The Managed by VRM box is only an indicator; it cannot be changed
here.
If the Managed by VRM box is checked, you are not able to configure any further recording
settings on this page.

Recording media

Select a media tab to connect to the available storage media.
iSCSI Media
To use an iSCSI system as the storage medium, a connection to the desired iSCSI system is
required to set the configuration parameters.
The storage system selected must be available on the network and completely set up. It must
have an IP address and be divided into logical drives (LUNs).

Activating and configuring storage media

Available media or iSCSI drives must be transferred to the Managed storage media list,
activated, and configured for storage.
Note:
A iSCSI target storage device can only be associated with one user. If a target is being used by
another user, ensure that the current user no longer needs the target before decoupling that
user.
