2. Click the Archive placeholder clip button. You can also drag clips directly from the Aurora
Playout placeholder list to the archive directory.
The Transfer Monitor appears showing transfer progress and the clip is copied to the archive bin
on the media server.
Resynchronizing clips
In a broadcast operation, a media server might have to be rebooted from time to time and you need
to resynchronize clips after the media server is restarted.
When a media server that the Housekeeper is connected to is shut down or rebooted, clips from that
media server will not be available in Aurora Playout and Housekeeper.
You can see that the media server status icon turned from green to red to indicate at least one
server is disconnected.
1. When the media server is reconnected, a pop-up window displays to confirm that you want to
reconnect to that media server.
2. Click OK .
You can see that the media server status icon on the Housekeeper toolbar will be flashing alternate
colors of green and red.
3. Click on the flashing media server status icon.
A pop-up window displays to confirm that you want to resynchronize content with the media
server.
4. Click Yes to synchronize and re-enumerate all clips from the reconnected media server.
If you click No , the media server status icon keeps on flashing to indicate that status of clips from
the reconnected media server needs to be resynchronized.
Even though you can see clips from that media server repopulate in the Clip Import tab, the
resynchronization process will not be activated until you instructed Housekeeper to do so.
