Use the Auto Copy Button (
)to configure the storage server to move DICOM image data to any number of PACS servers when it receives a DICOM image. This feature can be set up so that when the server receives a C-MOVE request to a destination AE it will automatically store it to some other server as well. When the storage server connects to a remote PACS server, it can be configured to optionally use a custom AE title. The number of threads can be specified in order to improve performance.
