Configuration 3: Backup For Data Archiving - Canon VK-64 Administrator's Manual

Examples
Hardware requirement
12.5 GB per day x 30 days = 375 GB
If the storage period of video data on the Storage Server is 30 days, and the required
archive period is 180 days, an archive backup for 1-week data can be saved on 100-GB
tape with an LTO drive (Ultrium). If you use a 400-GB LTO drive, you can save 30-day
data on a single cassette of tape.

Configuration 3: Backup for Data Archiving

Premise
5 VB-C50i
Recording condition
Frame rate is 1 fps (one frame per second), Camera Server video quality is 50, resolution
is 320x240, and the size for one image data is 15 KB.
The Maximum file size/duration option in the Storage Server Configuration window is
set to six hours.
Under this condition, the video file size per Camera Server per day is 310 MB x 4 files.
Therefore, the video data quantity per Camera Server per day is 1.25 GB and 6.25 GB for
five Camera Servers.
Hardware requirement
6.25 GB per day x 30 days = 190 GB
If the storage period of video data on the Storage Server is 30 days, and the required
archive period is 180 days, an archive backup for 1-week data can be saved on 50-GB
tape with an AIT drive. If you use a 100-GB LTO drive, you can save 1-week backup data.
However, if the tape capacity for archive is too large, it takes too long to find desired data
to restore.
