20.2 Data Management Tab
Maintenance operations on the VIGIL Server Database can be performed on this tab. These operations can be performed while VIGIL
Server is running.
Purge Data
To purge data, select the type of data you wish
to purge; Video/Audio Footage, POS Data or
Video Analytics Data. Specify a date range in
the From and To boxes or choose Purge All, click
the Purge button to purge the Selected Data.
Note: VIGIL Server is designed to manage
the purging of data; it will delete the old-
est hour of video footage or the oldest
POS / Video Analytics Data auto-
matically before the data drives become
full. Under normal operating conditions,
there is no need to manually purge Data.
Warning: This is a permanent deletion
of the data itself.
Rebuild Database
The Rebuild Database feature rebuilds the data-
base entries for all of the footage on the selected
drives. Click the Rebuild button, select the drive
(s) to rebuild and click OK to rebuild the selected
drives. During the rebuild process the Sentinel
‘No Footage Recorded within the last 24 hours’
warning may appear, this is expected as the data-
base of the footage is being rebuilt.
You may choose the utilities post-rebuild action
by checking When The Rebuild is Completed Suc-
cessfully: and choosing either Close this Utility
or Automatically Reboot the Server.
Reset Initial Footage Date / POS ATM Database

the initial footage date in VIGIL Server to deter-
mine if the VIGIL Server is recording the proper
number of days of video storage.Click the
Reset button to reset the cached date of the
first video footage recorded by the VIGIL Server
to the oldest footage currently on the VIGIL
Server. Please refer to the VIGIL Server Health
Monitor software Users Guide, or contact 3xLO-
GIC for more information.
Below the Reset Initial Footage Date option,
users may also reset the existing POS/ATM data-
base,
