Grass Valley iTX System v.2.6 - Manual (Page 67)

Starting the iTX system services
Starting the iTX system services
To make the iTX system fully operational, you ensure all the system services are running; you
then start the iTX Desktops.
To start the services on any machine, you should start the Server Controller on that machine
and let the Server Controller start the services under its control. You should not start individual
services manually.
Before you start the Server Controller on an Output Server or Encode Server machine for the
first time, you should place a License file for the services on that machine in the Media Watcher
Inbox folder; you should then check that the Media Watcher processes the License file.
Start the system services
1. Start the system services on the iTX machines in this order:
• Database Server machine.
• Media Stores.
• Output Server machines.
• Encode Server machines.
If the Windows Startup folder contains a shortcut for the Server Controller, the Server
Controller starts automatically when the machine starts up.
To start the Server Controller manually, select Server Controller from the Windows Start
menu; or double-click a shortcut, if there is one, on the Windows desktop.
The Server Controller starts; it then starts all the iTX system services on its machine.
