Chapter 3 Configuring the system
Prepare for core configuration stages
Do the following tasks in preparation for the configuration of core system
functionality.
Prepare NLS device
Use the following information to prepare the Near Line Storage (NLS) device to be a
part of the MediaFrame system.
You no longer need to configure an NLS MDI. Configure the Generic FTP MDI
instead. (For more information, see
“Configure Proxy MDI” on page 66 .)
Before configuring the Generic FTP MDI to specify transfer targets, verify that the
corresponding FTP communications are working without errors.
Prepare MediaFrame Server for News systems
If using the MediaFrame server with a News system, you need to add a user to the list
of users and give the proper permissions.
NOTE: Users need to be added to both the administrator group and the iis_wpg
group.
1. In Computer Manager, select Local Users and Groups | Users .
2. Add the appropriate user:
• If on a domain, user: Vibrint Service
• If not on a domain (local user), user: VibrintLocalService
3. Enter the password: Vibrint01801 (the password is case sensitive).
Prepare DSM
By convention, the News MDI runs on the DSM. If this is true in your system, you
must map the V: drive on the DSM. If the News MDI is not on the DSM, you must
map the V: drive on whatever machine is hosting the News MDI.
Prepare encoders
• For K2 systems, make sure SNFS and iSCSI software is correctly installed. Refer
to “Install software for K2 support” on page 25 .
• Add encoders to the K2 Storage System, as explained in the following section.
Refer to “Add encoders to the K2 Storage System” .
• On your Aurora Proxy Encoders, in the Aurora FTP configuration, make sure that
the drive is mapped to the K2 or AuroraShare storage. Verify that the mapped drive
is V:, unless there are multiple volumes, in which case the mapped drives are V:,
W:, X:, Y:.
Add encoders to the K2 Storage System
If your system includes a K2 Storage System, you must add Aurora Proxy Encoders
to the K2 Storage System, as instructed in this section.
