Editing Storage Partitions Using Partitioner

Configuring System Partitions on a Previously Configured Device

If you are installing or upgrading the NVR software on a device which has been previously

configured, there may be system partitions created already which will require re-configuration. To

ensure your NVR is set up correctly, all existing partitions should be deleted.

The requirements for configuration are three system

partitions in addition to the media storage

partitions. The system partitions are needed for regular operation of the NVR’s operating system.

The required system partitions that need to be created are outlined in Table 29-1. Each partition

size in the table is the recommended minimum value.

Note

When the Linux system starts, it scans the hardware for all system devices. When it finds disks

and partitions it assigns them unique names. Linux does not follow DOS or Windows XP style

partition or drive naming convention. SUSE Linux uses a combination of bus type and

alphanumeric suffixes.



The next part of the naming convention is an alphabeti

c designation for each physical drive, as an

example the primary drive of a system using SCSI drives would be sda. The secondary physical

SCSI drive naming prefix would be sdb. Tertiary physical drive would be sdc and so on.



As mentioned above the next part of the naming convention is a numerical suffix that denotes the

rtition. Each hard drive has a limit of 4 primary partitions. For example the primary SCSI drive of

a system with four partitions would be named as follows: sda1, sda2, sda3 and sda4. As an

example of the naming convention for the secondary drive it would be as follows: sdb1, sdb2, etc



One primary partition per drive can be assigned

s an extended partition containing as many

logical partitions as you require.
