Grass Valley iTX System v.2.6 - Manual (Page 46)

Installing iTX software modules
Click:
• Select Software to display the Select Software To Install dialog.
• Delete Config to delete the configuration file. You should uninstall any installed
modules first.
• Set Variables to change the System Database connection details. Since the System
Database details do not usually change in the lifetime of a system, it is unlikely you will
need to use this button.
Setting up an iTX domain and load-balanced Locator Services
iTX services and clients (including iTX Desktops) on the same TCP/IP network can interact with
each other if they are in the same iTX domain. An iTX domain is identified by a domain name
assigned to machines on which iTX software runs.
In general, iTX services and clients belong to the same iTX domain if they run on machines that
have the same iTX-domain name.
You assign a domain name to a machine during the installation of the first iTX software module
on the machine. You do so when the installer displays the iTX Domain Configuration dialog:
There is almost no limit to the possible length of a domain name; but for practical reasons the
name should be short – containing a maximum of about 10 characters. It should clearly
distinguish the domain from other iTX domains. You may include any character apart from a
colon (:) in the name.
