Storage Server Operation Considerations

We recommended that you dedicate the Storage Server computer exclusively to running this software.

Be sure to avoid the following on the Storage Server computer:

• Running Web server software on the computer

You cannot operate the Storage Server on a computer where Web server software such as Windows standard IIS

(Internet Information Server) or Apache is already installed.

The Storage Server uses HTTP protocol to communicate with cameras. Therefore, the Storage Server may not work

normally if other Web service applications exist on the same computer.

The HTTP port used by this software is 80 and cannot be changed.

• Running database server software (e.g., SQL Server, Oracle) on the computer

Database processing can place a load on the hard disk that may affect recording performance. Conversely, this

software may affect database server performance when it performs tasks that place a load on the hard disk.

• Using the computer as a file server

The hard disk is frequently accessed when the computer is used as a file server, and this may affect recording

performance. In addition, the Storage Server is more likely to run out of disk capacity if the computer is operated as a file

server.

• Running other applications on the computer

The additional processing load from running applications other than this software may affect recording performance.

This software uses the TCP port number 80, 443,10080 and 2380. These ports should not be used by other applications.
