Partitioning and Formatting a Drive

Note

Partitioning and formatting a drive is necessary only if replacing a drive pro-
vided by Grass Valley. Drives received from Grass Valley have been parti-
tioned, formatted and tested prior to shipment.

Once a drive has been installed and mounted, it must be partitioned and
formatted in order for the Content Gateway to create the necessary folders
and then copy the branding elements to those folders .

To partition and format a drive, do the following:

1.

Initiate a Telnet session to the IP address of the Maestro Processor board
on which the drive is mounted.

2.

At the prompt, type “devs” to display all devices.

All mounted drives will then appear in the list as illustrated in

Figure 29

.
