Use the Attach backups function to expand the recording time period of an active HD store for analysis purposes.
Example
For instance, suppose the active HD store is configured for a time period of 1 month and you create a monthly backup. To be able to carry out an evaluation of the past quarter anyway, simply attach the last two backups.
During the analysis with ibaAnalyzer, this looks like a three-month HD recording.
Take the following prerequisites and properties into consideration:
-
The backups that are to be attached may be in a different storage location than the active HD store. Therefore, you can also cover large time periods for which the active storage of the ibaHD-Server computer is not configured.
-
Backups can be attached to an active HD store as well as to a mounted backup (offline analysis).

Change to ibaHD-Server v3.5.0 and higher In earlier versions of ibaHD-Server, only the signal configuration was saved for automatic restoring or mounting after a restart of the ibaHD-Server service, not the configuration of the time periods If you want to access time periods in backups that were mounted before ibaHD-Server v3.5.0, you must dismount the corresponding backup and then mount it again. |
The process of appending is divided into two steps:
-
Setting the source
-
Validation
