To modify advanced Archiver settings that are not defined in Security
Center
Config
Tool, you must generate the
Archiver.gconfig from the Genetec™
Server Console.
Before you begin
If the
Archiver.gconfig file already exists, make a backup copy
before generating a new file. The new
Archiver.gconfig file contains
the default Archiver settings, and overwrites the existing file.
What you should know
The Archiver.gconfig file is created on the server that is
hosting the Archiver role. The file is saved in the Security
Center installation directory. The default
location is C:\Program Files (x86)\Genetec Security Center 5.x\ConfigurationFiles\ on
a 64-bit computer, and C:\Program Files\Genetec Security Center 5.x\ConfigurationFiles\ on
a 32-bit computer.The settings in the Archiver.gconfig file apply
to all the Archiver roles that are hosted on the server.
CAUTION: You
should only generate the Archiver.gconfig if you know which setting
you must change or add. If the syntax in this file is incorrect, Archiver roles that are
hosted on this server will not start.
To generate an Archiver.gconfig
file:
-
Open Server Admin using a web browser, and log on.
-
From the Servers section on the Overview
page, select the Archiver role server.
-
Next to the server name, click .
-
Click the Commands tab.

Expand Archiver Role commands, then click
