Back up archived recordings
Many organizations want to back up their recordings by using tape drives or similar. Exactly how you do this is
highly individual and depends on the backup media used in your organization. However, the following is worth
bearing in mind:
Back up archives rather than camera databases
Always create backups based on the content of archives, not based on individual camera databases. If you
create backups based on the content of individual camera databases, you may cause sharing violations or
other malfunctions.
When scheduling a backup, make sure the backup job does not overlap with your specified archiving times. To
view each recording server's archiving schedule in each of a recording server's storage areas, see the Storage tab.
Know your archive structure so that you can target backups
When you archive recordings, you store them in a certain sub-directory structure within the archive.
During all regular use of your system, the sub-directory structure is completely transparent to the system's
users when they browse recordings with XProtect Smart Client. This is true both with archived and non-
archived recordings. It is relevant to know the sub-directory structure (see Archive structure (explained) on
page 59 if you want to back up your archived recordings (see Backing up and restoring system configuration
on page 313).
