Identifying K2 ASI Media Client Software Versions
Media Server taking the role of media file system server. If there are redundant K2
Media Servers, both are listed on this page as file system servers
20.Verify that the K2 ASI Media Client is connecting to the correct K2 Media Server
or servers as follows:
• For non redundant K2 Storage Systems, the client connects to the only server.
• For iSCSI redundant K2 Storage Systems, the client connects to server A as file
system server 1 and server B as file system server 2, so that if there is a problem
with one server, the other server is available.
21.Click Check .
22.When the wizard reports that the configuration check is successful, click Next . The
iSCSI Initiator Configuration page opens.
This page load balances the K2 appliance's iSCSI connection to the K2 Storage
System. The iSCSI adapters on your K2 Media Server or servers are listed here as
iSCSI targets.
The K2 System Configuration application determines the iSCSI target to which
each K2 appliance subscribes, based on the bandwidth values that you enter. This
enforces policies by which each K2 appliance has sufficient bandwidth for its
intended use and no individual iSCSI target is oversubscribed.
23.Click Modify . The Bandwidth Input dialog box opens.
24.Enter 10 MB\sec as the bandwidth for the K2 ASI Media Client, unless specified
otherwise by Grass Valley.
25.Click Assign TOE .
The K2 System Configuration application automatically chooses an iSCSI target to
assign the K2 ASI Media Client. A message appears that specifies the chosen
iSCSI target, but allows you to choose a different iSCSI target if a custom SAN
type.
26.Respond to the message as follows:
• In most cases you should accept the iSCSI target chosen by the K2 System
Configuration application. Click Yes , and then OK to continue.
• If your system design specifies a different iSCSI target, click No , and then select
the iSCSI target on the iSCSI Initiator Configuration page.
27.Click Next . The Completing the Configuration Wizard page opens.
28.Click Finish . The K2 ASI Media Client restarts and the wizard closes.
