Chapter 2 Installing the K2 ASI Media Client
Modifying K2 ASI Media Client Control Network Settings
To modify the hostname or IP address of a K2 ASI Media Client, use the following
procedure. Refer to procedures elsewhere in this chapter for the details of individual
steps.
1. Make sure you know the load balancing (bandwidth) parameters currently set for
the K2 ASI Media Client in the K2 System Configuration application. You must
reconfigure these parameters later in this procedure.
2. Remove the K2 appliance from the K2 Storage System.
3. Modify the hostname or IP address.
4. Edit hosts files or other name resolution mechanisms for all the devices of the K2
Storage System.
5. Add the K2 appliance as a new device to the K2 Storage System, load balancing
the K2 appliance just as it was previously. This is important, as you want the K2
System Configuration application to assign it to the same available bandwidth on
the same iSCSI target as previously.
