Split Sites

Distribute Overloaded SQL, Generate Multiple Sites from a Single Site

Offload sites by distributing a single database to several databases

🏢An Enterprise Use Case Example

The Problem

• 🏢 Capacity Overload — one Management + SQL server strained by 200+ recorders, dragging down live view and playback.

• 🛑 Functional Latency — slow console response frustrates operators and delays investigations.

• 🎯 Goal: Two Balanced Sites — split 200 + recorders into two servers (≈ 100 each) for smoother performance and redundancy.

The Solution: XPort Recorder Migration

• 🔍 Recorder Selection — choose which recorders move, and XPort handles dependencies and media pointers.

• 🔄 Automated — XPort migrates selected recorder configs, roles, views, and archives in a single operation.

• 🔑 Permissions & Views Intact — user roles, custom views, and group assignments carry over without manual reconfiguration.

• 📂 Archive Access — The destination retains seamless access to the media database of the migrated recorder
