Some parameters have been added to better control the load balancing job

management. Those parameters can be changed in the registry. XTAccess must

be re-started in order to take them into account.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\EVS Broadcast Equipment\XTAccess\Max

Running Jobs (default value = 6): Maximum amount of jobs simultaneously

processed by XTAccess. Once the limit is reached, any additional job will be

“scheduled” (in Jobs_Scheduled” folder) until an “in-progress” job is over.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\EVS Broadcast Equipment\XTAccess\Max

IP Jobs (default value = 6): Maximum amount of jobs simultaneously

processed by XTAccess to or from a given IP address (as destination or source

XT server). Once the limit is reached, any new job involving the same IP

address will be “scheduled” (in Jobs_Scheduled” folder) until a “in-progress”

job related to this IP address is over.
Besides, in case a job related to the IP address is in status “Server Busy”, any

next job using the same IP address will stay in “Scheduled” status until all jobs

under “Server Busy” will be passed to “in-progress” status. At that time

XTAccess scans the job list “scheduled” in order to move them to “in-progress”

status. In case of XT Copy job, IP addresses of source and destination XT

server are taken into account.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\EVS Broadcast Equipment\XTAccess\Max

XML Jobs (default value = 6): Maximum amount of jobs simultaneously

processed by XTAccess per XML scan folder. This amount defined the

maximum amount of XML files that will be processed by an XML scan folder,

possibly after several scan processes (depending on Max Scan Running Jobs

parameter – see below).

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\EVS Broadcast Equipment\XTAccess\Max

XML Jobs Per Scan (default value = 6): Maximum amount of jobs

simultaneously loaded by XTAccess per scan processes. This amount defined

the maximum amount of files that will be loaded by a scan process of the given

folder.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\EVS Broadcast Equipment\XTAccess\XML

Scan Timeout (default value = 250): Time delay (in milliseconds) between two

successive scan processes, provided that the “Max XML Jobs” parameter is not

already reached.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\EVS Broadcast Equipment\XTAccess\XML

Scan Jobs Timeout (default value = 5000): Time delay (in milliseconds)

between the treatment of two successive XML jobs.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\EVS Broadcast Equipment\XTAccess\IP

Retry (default value = 12): Maximum amount of attempts to connect to an IP

address of a XT server which does not reply.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\EVS Broadcast Equipment\XTAccess\IP

Retry Timeout (default value = 5000): Time delay (in milliseconds) between

two successive attempts to connect to an IP address which does not reply.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\EVS Broadcast Equipment\XTAccess\IP

Retry Timeout (default value = 5000): Time delay (in milliseconds) between

two successive attempts to connect to an IP address which does not reply.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\EVS Broadcast Equipment\XTAccess\Max

Transcoding Jobs (default value = 1): Maximum amount of transcoding jobs
