The Ipsotek VIConfigure tool has support for system Backup and restore. This option is visible under the Server Settings tab. It is highly recommended to backup the application configuration at regular intervals. The backup is an XML file and can be inspected as needed.
If there is a need to restore, the administrator can go to the previous backup and select restore.
During the restore process, there are options to restore some or all of the configuration. Some examples are to restore:
- Cameras
- Presets
- Actions
- Rule Assignments
Throughout the Ipsotek VIConfigure admin tool, options exist to export individual items also. For example, individual rules can be exported and shared. This could be a useful feature if rules are developed in a nonproduction environment and these rules must be pushed to a production scenario.
