The Ingest Scheduler does not start or stop the XT[2] recorder channels. The
recording process must be started on the XT[2] servers before the scheduled
events:
• In LSM mode, the recorder channels are automatically started at boot up.
• In IPDP Spotbox mode, the Rec Auto Start parameter is normally set to ‘ON’ in
the Channels Configuration window (AVCFG) of the XT[2] server to start the
recorders when the system boots up.
In both modes, it is possible to manually start or stop the recorder channels
independently of the Ingest Scheduler.
