General requirements

For Axxon Next One VMS operation, the disk subsystem must match the following requirements:

  1. The device must have no less IOPS the Axxon Next One VMS.
    The Axxon Next One VMS records video footage to archive volumes in 4MB blocks with a 10 second interval. If the most recent block is not full after 10 seconds, it will be filled up later.
    Similarly, footage is played back in blocks (except for re-indexation, see the utility for archive management Console utility for working with archives).
    This is how you can estimate the IOPS value for the Axxon Next One VMS.


    If average bitrate per camera is less than 3.6 Mbps

    If average bitrate per camera exceeds 3.6 Mbps

    IOPS during archive recording
    Archive recording includes both data input (writing) and output (reading) operations

    IOPS (writing) = 0,29 * N

    IOPS (reading) = 0,035 * M

    IOPS (writing) = 0,065 * M

    IOPS (reading) = 0,035 * M

    IOPS during archive playback
     Archive playback includes only output (reading) operations

    IOPS (reading) = 0,035 * R * S

    IOPS during simultaneous recording and playback

    IOPS (writing) = 0,29 * N

    IOPS (reading) = 0,035 * M + 0,035 * R * S

    IOPS (writing) = 0,065 * M

    IOPS (reading) = 0,035 * M + 0,035 * R * S

    where

    • N is the number of camera channels being recorded;
    • M is the cumulative bitrate over all camera channels being recorded, in Mbps;
    • R is the cumulative bitrate over all camera channels being played back at normal speed (1x), in Mbps;
    • S is the playback speed.


  2. If you use RAID storage, please specify write-back policy for writing to cash memory.

You need at least 10 GB of free disk space for Windows OS and 5 GB for Linux OS to install the Axxon Next One VMS package in a Server and Client configuration.
