About Control Panel, SiteConfig, and K2Config settings
During system commissioning or system reconfiguration, the SiteConfig and K2Config applications
are first used to set up or modify K2 SAN and network configurations. The GV STRATUS Control
Panel application is then used to complete the setup of the GV STRATUS system-wide workflow
components.
The GV STRATUS Control Panel application imports the configuration information and populates
the GV STRATUS view of the available K2 systems. For example, information about K2 SANs
comes from K2Config while information about standalone K2 Summit systems comes from
SiteConfig. The information transfer is uni-directional, where the GV STRATUS Control Panel
application imports the SiteConfig/K2Config generated configurations.
