Adding Genetec Cloudlink appliances

2026-10-22Last updated

To use and manage your Genetec Cloudlink appliance in Security Center SaaS, you must add it to your system.

Procedure

  1. In the Security Center SaaS Configuration task, on the Devices page, click Add device and follow the steps in the configuration wizard.
  2. If you are adding a Genetec Cloudlink 210 with dual hard drives (GCL-210-M3JA), select a Storage type:
    Redundant
    Duplicate data across disks to protect against drive failure. This is selected by default.
    Extended
    Combine disks into one volume for maximum storage. If one disk fails, all recordings are lost.
    Note:
    To change the storage type after deployment, you must delete and add the appliance again. Re-adding the appliance erases all data stored on the drives.
  3. Click Add.
After a few minutes, the appliance becomes available in Security Center SaaS. It is listed on the Devices page, and its Status shows Online.
