Overloaded Appliances: Symptoms & Solutions
Using Your Appliance 195
important that you verify that the appliance is configured to generate alert states and send alert
notifications as efficiently as possible.
• When viewing alerts in the Advanced View, setting the refresh interval to None or to a large refresh
interval may allow a heavily-alerting appliance to load its complete list of resolved and unresolved
alerts more efficiently.
• Try to avoid leaving the Advanced View and/or Basic View up and running with the Cameras view
selected when it is not being used. Streaming of interactive camera pictures from appliances
consumes appliance resources.
• Upgrade your appliances only at times when the alert load on an appliance (particularly appliances
with camera motion thresholds enabled) is low.
• When configuring capture settings for the camera, selecting a shorter capture time or less total
picture capture size will result in less of a chance for multiple overlapping alert picture captures and
also in the ability to store a greater number of alert captures before they have to be deleted to make
room for more recent alert captures.
• If your appliance is being managed by a NetBotz Central server and has surveillance enabled,
configuring the surveillance to record lower frame rates and/or resolutions will reduce load on the
appliance. Additionally, on the 500 models, the request to include audio with surveillance footage
increases the load on the appliance.
