Added

  • Edge storage page: the SD card of every camera in one table (state, size, used, wear, encryption, retention) and
    the camera's tools for the selected cameras: Check, Set retention, Repair, Format, Encrypt and Turn off encryption. Every
    tool asks first and says which recordings are lost; the card is always mounted again afterwards. Off by default
    (Plugins page); "Format and encrypt storage" in the roles decides who may format (Operator does not have it).
  • Light appearance: Settings > This computer > Appearance, Dark or Light. Takes effect after the client restarts.
  • Add devices: Use DNS names instead of IP addresses (Discovery and Network range) lists the devices by their DNS
    name and adds them by it. Devices without a DNS name are added by IP address. Remembered on each computer.
  • Configure devices (context menu, Maintenance), like ADM: set chosen parameters, action rules and stream profiles on
    many devices at once. The settings come from a device or an AXIS Device Manager configuration file; each device skips
    what it does not have. Dangerous settings (addresses, HTTPS, ports, login method, IEEE 802.1X) are marked, confirmed and
    need their own permission.
  • Create configuration file (context menu, Maintenance): save chosen settings of one device as an AXIS Device Manager
    configuration file.
  • The device picker can choose exactly one device.
  • Applications (ACAP) installs license key files: with the package or on their own (Install license). Choose many
    key files or a ZIP; each device gets the key with its MAC address.
  • Backup and restore (Settings, administrators): back up the whole server into one password-protected file, now or
    every day automatically, and restore it, also on another computer. A restore saves the current state first; a backup of
    an older OADM is upgraded.
  • Before every database upgrade the server copies its database to backups/before-upgrade.

Fixed

  • Configure devices: the web server ports, HTTP and HTTPS policy, HTTP/2 and the web interface switch count as
    dangerous settings; IP addresses are never offered or written there (use Network settings or Assign IP address).
  • Applications (ACAP): a device with license keys for several versions of an application gets the one that fits
    the installed version.
  • Backup and restore: a restore cut off by a crash is put back at the next start.
  • Applications (ACAP) is offered on cameras that run applications but do not name them in their API list (seen on AXIS
    OS 11.9). OADM now reads the camera's parameters, as Axis documents it.
  • Applications: removing an application waits up to 2 minutes (it can take about a minute); every error the camera
    reports for installing, starting, stopping, removing and license keys is shown in plain words with what to do; a failed
    upgrade that removed the application says so; long details in the device table wrap.
  • VAPIX Commander: the PTZ, privacy mask and application commands were refused on current cameras (they asked for an
    API version or name the cameras do not list).

Changed

  • The server setting "Use host name when available, otherwise IP address" is removed: the add page decides per add (see
    above). Devices keep the address they were added with.
  • Settings: the server settings are in four cards (Polling, Discovery, Tasks, Server), saved together with Save below
    them.
  • The client asks for the terms of use on its first start on each computer (and again when they change). The Windows
    and macOS installers no longer show a license page, so every install method and platform is the same.
