Grass Valley K2 AppCenter v.9.0 - Manual (Page 145)

Adding a remote host
Grass Valley recommends manually adding each remote host that you want to import or export files
to. Do this for K2 systems.
To import/export between systems using AppCenter, follow these steps:
1. Open Configuration Manager and select the Remote tab.
2. Add each system that you want to have available as a source or a destination.
a) Enter the name or the IP address of the K2 Summit/Solo system where you want to import
or export streaming media assets. (Grass Valley recommends that you use host names. For
more information on host files, see the K2 System Guide.)
b) When adding a remote host that uses AMP remote control protocol, select a Controller ID.
To map a source or destination drive
This procedure provides a mapped network drive for file import/export on the machine on which
you are using AppCenter, such that you can use the drive as a verified source or destination via
AppCenter’s Import or Send To features. This is required in the following cases:
• When using AppCenter on a Control Point PC for any file import or export. You cannot use the
local drive for file import or export on a Control Point PC.
• When using AppCenter on a K2 Summit SAN-attached system for any file import or export.
You cannot use the local drive for file import or export on a K2 Summit SAN-attached system.
• When using AppCenter on an standalone K2 Summit/Solo system and the source or destination
is not on the local K2 Summit/Solo system.
1. On the machine that is the source or destination, create a folder to be used for file import and
export. For example, create the folder C:\ImportExport.
