Specifying the server settings on client applications
Vertigo Suite applications (Xstudio, Xbuilder, Xnews, and Xplay) that run on the client
machines must be configured to connect and communicate with both the primary and the
secondary Xmedia Servers. Therefore, you must open each of the client applications and
specify the appropriate Server settings for the primary and the secondary Xmedia Servers
(also referred to as the backup Xmedia Server).
To specify the server settings on a client application:
1.
Open the X MEDIA S ERVER C ONTROL P ANEL on the primary and secondary XMS servers
and take note of the following information:
• G
ENERAL page >TCP/IP C ONFIGURATION PORT (typically, 14050)
• R EPLICATION page > V IRTUAL IP SETTINGS > LAN IP ADDRESS
2. Open the D ATA S ERVER P ANEL on the primary and secondary XMS servers
(S TART >S ETTINGS >C ONTROL P ANEL >V ERTIGO X MEDIA D ATA S ERVER ).
Take note of the TCP/IP>L ISTENING PORT value (typically, 14060).
3. Launch an Vertigo Suite application by selecting S TART >P ROGRAMS >V ERTIGO and then
one of the following applications:
• X
STUDIO
• X BUILDER
• X PLAY
• X PLORER
4. Select T OOLS >S ETTINGS from the application’s menu bar.
The S ETTINGS window appears.
5. Select the S ERVERS heading from the tree structure to display the server settings
(figure 6-10 ).
