   Note
   title Attention!
   You are advised to place the log database and object trajectory database on a disk that has sufficient space. If you will be using only a log database, the disk capacity must be at least 5% larger than the archive size. If you will also be using a trajectory database, the disk must be at least 15% larger than the archive.When determining The following formulas can help to determine the required disk size , the size of for the trajectory database can be calculated with the following formulas : Size of object trajectory database = N×T×(0,5Gb / day)– sufficient disk size; Size of object trajectory database = N×T×(1Gb / day)– sufficient disk size plus reserve space; Size of object trajectory database = N×T×(5Gb / day)– sufficient disk size plus a large reserve. N equals the number of video cameras in the system actively recording metadata; T equals the period of time (number of days) that metadata will be stored. By default, T = 30 days.

   Info
