We have a server running Milestone and for some reason it stopped recording. We rebooted the server, then restarted all services. Still no timeline in playback. Today is the 16th and we have one camera that recorded on the 10th for 45 minutes.
Out of 21 cameras, only 5 are up in liveview.
The managed Ubiquiti switch was on a different network then the server, so we changed the server IP, and we tried to change the switch IP, and the switch froze up. We never actually touched the network settings. It froze up while switch pages/tabs. We rebooted it from the scan tool, and it never came back on the scan tool. We then changed the server back to the original IP address to match the cameras. We still have 5 cameras up in live view so the switch is working in some capacity. We are working remotely so we have to get a tech out to hard reboot the switch.
Is it possible live view is working, but due to the switch having the wrong IP address, it may not be passing ONVIF details over like motion detection? We did not change any settings and server side motion detection is not enabled. I thought of changing 1 or 2 cameras to server side motion to see if recording started but did not.
I feel like we have to get all the cameras online and resolve the switch issue before we address the lack of recording.
I have not reached out to Milestone because I do not think its an issue with Milestone, at least not yet. I wanted other opinions.
Thoughts?
