Adding a bin

Once a server has been added, you can see the assets on that K2 system. A bin is a
folder located on a K2 system, which stores K2 assets.

Prerequisites:

At least one K2 system must have been added as a server in the Dyno PA
application.

To add a bin, follow these steps:

1. In the Navigator pane, click on the location in the K2 system where you want the

new bin to be located.

2. Right-click and select

New Bin

.

A text field displays next to the New Bin selection.

3. Enter in the bin name, and press

Enter

.

The new bin appears in the Navigator pane.

Adding a repository

Prerequisite:

At least one K2 system must have been added as a server in the K2 Dyno PA
application.

If adding a filesystem repository, the filesystem requires a network share of the
folder or drive using the device that hosts the drive. This network share must be
accessible from the PC that runs the Grass Valley platform service.

If the filesystem repository is a USB drive, the drive must be UNC mountable from
the machine running the Dyno PA platform service.

To add a repository, follow these steps:

A K2 Dyno PA repository can be used to transfer, import or export assets. Repositories
can be used as a shortcut to a location on the network where assets can be transferred
to or transferred from. If you delete a repository from Dyno PA, the shortcut is deleted;
the assets in the repository itself are not affected.

1. In the Navigation pane, right-click and select

Add Repository

.

2. Enter the name of the new repository.

3. If desired, enter a description of the repository.

4. Select the type:

K2/Summit

a) Use the Host drop-down list to select the K2 system.
b) Click the

...

button and navigate to the desired bin for the repository.
