Knows the moment a disk goes —
and why.
Disks are tracked by serial number every night. When one is pulled, fails or is swapped, VMS Nexus finds the exact time and cause in the recorder's own log.
Every disk, by serial, with its health.
Serial, model, capacity, free space, status and SMART health for every disk in every recorder — and a clear label when one is missing.
- Serial-first matchingRecorders that renumber their bays don't cause false alarms.
- Faulty vs removed“Not detected” in its bay is a failed disk; gone from the list is a removed one.
- SMART healthReallocated and pending sectors, temperature and hours, with a verdict.
- Day-by-day historyDisk count and RAID layout for every recorder, every day.
Problems your team can actually close.
Every change becomes an issue. Acknowledge it with a comment and a follow-up date; resolve it when it's fixed. Only new issues count on the dashboard and in alerts.
- New → acknowledged → resolvedWith comments, owners and follow-up dates.
- Auto-resolveA disk that comes back closes its own issue.
- Re-opens itselfIf the bay changes again, or a follow-up date passes, the issue returns to New.
- Security flagsDisks initialised or users added on the recorder around a change are raised in red.
