Prepare for core configuration stages
Do the following tasks in preparation for the configuration of core system
functionality.
• From each machine in the MediaFrame system, verify that you can ping all the
devices that the MediaFrame server needs to communicate with over the control or
FTP network.
• For the machines that need to communicate with an FTP server, verify you can log
in to that FTP server using the credentials that the system will be using.
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.
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).
4. Add the user to both the administrator group and the iis_wpg group.
5. Add the nbadmin account. This account needs to be on every MediaFrame, K2
BaseCamp Express or MDI server and every encoder. Typically, the username and
password are
nbadmin and newsat10 .
6. Add nbadmin to both the administrator group and the iis_wpg group.
Prepare encoders
• For K2 systems, make sure SNFS and iSCSI software is correctly installed. Refer

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:.

Before you add the encoders to the K2 Storage System, refer to the K2 Storage System
Instruction Manual and other procedures in this manual as necessary to verify the
