When administrators redistribute cameras—say to load-balance traffic, decommission legacy hardware, or tidy up the estate—they typically drag each device from one primary recorder to another. In an active-active setup, if the same move must also occur on the redundant recorders, the Move Camera block automates that follow-up step:
Backup mode: A camera moved between Primary recorders is moved in lock-step between their linked Secondary recorders.
Restore mode: While the DR site is live, any changes made to a secondary are reflected to its one-to-one-linked Primary.
Visibility: The Move Camera block appears only when Mode = Auto; in Manual (Map Cameras) mode, you relocate devices on each recorder yourself.
