Configuration problem with analytics data storage
Answered
Dears, we have an installation of NX on an Nvidia Jetson TX2 machine, running on a 64GB SD card. It is connected to a network NAS server capacity of 10TB for video storage purposes. everything goes fine and the recording is made quite well. The reason we have to work on a Jetson is that the images are processed with Deep learning methods to fins out helmets, boots, counting of entering people, and so on. We've found a problem with analytics data storage. It is set to save the info on the 64GB SD card by default, and this cannot be changed. The consequence is that the disk is full...so no more events can be recorded there and the existing ones take longer times to load when playback is set. (All videos are successfully saved on NAS server). How can we fix that point and move the analytics data info, database, to the NAS, for instance, or any other place? we can't change it through NX server settings menus...it is disabled the option while the others can be changed from main to backup or other. I suspect the only possibility is to reinstall NX once now remote NAS server is correctly mapped to the local Ubuntu installation (in the early beginning it was not yet provided )...could this fix the issue without loosing the current info? thanks in advance Carles.

Hello Carles,
- Indeed, right now the only way for you to work it around is to mount the remote drive with OS means. I would recommend nfs. In this case Nx software will detect it as a "local" drive. You don't have to reinstall anything though - just make sure that after you mount the drive server automatically detects the footage - mount point path must be the same as before.
- For analytics data storage right now we use sqlite standard which introduces pretty strict requirements for the data media.
SMB protocol does not face those which eventually always results in the significant data loss. So we just can't allow that.
In future we have certain plans on the improvements but they're too vague to be announced in public.
