    titleAttention!

    If you enter zero value:

    • System Log events will be stored 0 days;
    • metadata retention time becomes unlimited.
    Note
    Attention!

    If you have less than 15 GB of free disk space, the metadata DB is overwritten - new data records over the oldest data records (see General information about the self-diagnostics service).


  3. In the appropriate field, enter the amount of hours after which outdated events will be purged from the system log (4).

    Outdated events are events that have been stored in the system log for a period greater than that indicated in step 2.

    The metadata database is purged of video recordings that have been stored for more than the specified storage period:

    1. Every 12 hours after Axxon Next is started.

    2. Every time you start the MomentQuest forensic search tool (see Forensic Search for Fragments (MomentQuest)).

    If the camera is not recording when DB is cleaned up, then its recordings are preserved irrespective of their timestamp.


  4. The metadata database can be stored on NAS if necessary (by default, it is located locally as set during  Installation). Do the following:

    1. Enter a path to the network destination for metadata database (5). 

    2. Enter the user name and password (6). The user must have permissions to access the NAS.

      If you clear the path to NAS, metadata will be stored in the local database again
