Verify archive preparations
3. Make sure the FlashNet services are up and running.
Consider the following when preparing to integrate FlashNet with the Aurora Browse
system:
• The FlashNet MDI does allow a user-specified name for a partial restore.
• The FlashNet MDI uses a file cache to support asset functionality. As the FlashNet
device does not have any support for file system updates, the FlashNet MDI
assumes that the MDI is the only gateway to the entire FlashNet file system. Any
changes made outside the scope of the MDI will not be reflected in MDI
immediately.
• In FlashNet, renaming of an asset is not supported.
• A restore operation always defaults to highest “Time Critical” priority and archive
operation defaults to “normal” priority.

vmfmovie login account.
