Managing Network Storage
Network Storage allows you to move video storage from your HMP server to Network-Attached Storage (NAS) through a Network File System (NFS) connection.
Note
- After configuring your HMP for network storage, the HMP's local storage is no longer used for video assets.
- The NFS server must be configured on your host before configuring network storage on Haivision Media Platform.
To configure network storage:
- Click the icon and select Administration from the navigation drop-down menu.
- Click System Settings on the toolbar and then click Network Storage on the sidebar.
The Network Storage pane opens. - To connect to an NFS server, toggle the NFS button to On. The NFS settings appear:
- Enter the remote host IP address and path.
- To test the connection from HMP to the defined NFS server, click Test Settings.
- Click Save Settings to save the connection.
- Click Reboot and click Confirm to restart the HMP server.
A dialog appears informing you when the reboot is complete. - After the reboot, click Migrate to copy your videos and non-video data to the NFS server.
The progress bar shows the progress of the migration. Your videos and non-video data are now stored on the defined NFS server.
