to which the recording server should be connected.

Recording Server service.

Register a recording server
When you install a recording server, it is automatically registered in most cases. But you need to do the
registration manually if:
l
You have replaced the recording server
l
The recording server was installed offline and then added to the management server afterward
l
Your management server does not use the default ports. The port numbers depend on the encryption
configuration. For more information, see Ports used by the system on page 91
l
An automatic registration has failed, for example after changing the management server address,
changing the name of the computer with the recording server, or after enabling or disabling server
communication encryption settings. For more information about changes to the management server
address, see Changing the host name of the management server computer.
When you register a recording server, you configure it to connect to your management server. The part of the
management server that handles registration is the Authorization Server service.
