NVR 4.1 settings will already be implemented as you progres

s through the Setup Wizard.

Verify these previous NVR settings and configure any new settings which are available on

the NVR 4.2.1 software that the wizard may prompt for.

The storage partitions from your 4.1 NVR are tr

sferred to your 4.2.1 NVR and assigned

to the same storage set. In the storage configuration pages all media folders apart from

one will have the same name as was used in the 4.1 partition appended by the number ‘1’.

For example, 4.1 partitions sdh and sdj will be named sdh1 and sdj1 on your NVR 4.2.1.

One partition from your 4.1 unit is divided into 14 smaller p

rtitions. Thirteen of these

partitions are available as media folders and can be used to store media. One partition is

reserved as the clip export partition. The 13 media folders that are available for storage

have the 4.1 partition name appended with numbers 1-15, excluding numbers 2 and 4. For

example, if the partition was named in the 4.1 NVR as sdg, in your NVR 4.2.1 the 13

smaller partitions representing this larger partition are named, sdg1, sdg3, sdg5 up to

sdg15. The partitions appended by numbers 2 and 4 are not visible in the storage

configuration pages, as number 2 is used by the clip export partition and number 4 is

utilized by the NVR as part of the partition method. Figure 30-16 below shows the

upgraded storage media folders.
