Resynchronizing clips

In a broadcast operation, a media server might have to be rebooted from time to time
and you need to resyncronize 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 will be displayed 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 will be displayed 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 will keep on flashing alternate colors

of green and red to indicate that status of clips from the reconnected media server
has not been reinitialized.

Even though you can see clips from that media server had been repopulated in the
Clip Import tab, the resynchronization process will not be activated until you instructed
Housekeeper to do so.
