Creating bins and groups
Use this procedure to create a bin in your K2 Summit/SAN system storage.
NOTE: Creating bins under the Locations node in Navigator creates a corresponding bin in K2
storage. Groups created under the Groups node in Navigator create shortcut folders in the
STRATUS database, which do not correspond directly to K2 bins.
1. Do one of the following:
• In the Navigator panel, right-click a K2 Summit/SAN system or a bin.
• Right-click in an Asset List panel for a K2 Summit/SAN system bin.
NOTE: To prevent corrupting the K2 database, do not exceed 8 nested bins levels when
creating bins.
2. Select New | Bin .
A New Bin dialog box opens.
3. Enter a name for your bin and click OK .

Asset copies and deletions
When you copy an asset, different types of associations are created, depending on the K2 storage
location and the type of asset copy, as follows:
• Shallow copy — When you copy assets and both copies are in the same K2 storage location,
shallow copies are created. With a shallow copy, the high-resolution media files are not copied.
Rather, the K2 media database and the GV STRATUS database contain a record for each shallow
copy, and each record references the same media files. In the GV STRATUS system, this results
in an asset with multiple references, similar to a subclip.
