Database
The AXIS Camera Station database stores recording and conguration information that is needed for the system to work properly.
The database is backed up every night. See Database Backup on page 70.
Database maintenance should be performed if the alarm "Database maintenance is required" is displayed or if the system was shut
down unexpectedly, for example after a power outage. See Database Maintenance on page 70.
For information about database best practice, see page 77.
For information about how to recover the database, see Recover Lost Data on page 76.

The AXIS Camera Station database is backed up every night. The backups can be stored on the local computer or the network. To
