Adding a SAN server
Prerequisites:
• You must be logged in as an administrator on the K2 Dyno PA application to add a server.
• You must have an administrator-level username and password on the K2 system that you are
going to add as a server. Grass Valley recommends that all the machines in the Dyno PA system,
including the Dyno PA client, have the same administrator account (username and password).
• The K2 system must have the requirements described in K2 Dyno PA Prerequisites in the K2
Dyno Production Assistant Configuration Manual.
• The K2 system must have a hosts table set up as described in the K2 System Guide.
This procedure configures the K2 Dyno PA PC to do the following tasks:
• See the file system exposed by the K2 Media Server (FSM).
• Connect to K2 Summit Production Clients or K2 Media Clients, and manage their channels.
In the Dyno PA system, the following terminology is used:
• Server — In a K2 SAN system, a server is a K2 Media Server accessed by the K2 Dyno PA
application.
• SAN Client — A K2 Summit Production Client or K2 Media Client with media storage on a
K2 SAN.
In the K2 Dyno PA application, the procedure for adding a SAN server is divided into two sections.
You must first configure the server (the K2 Media Server) and then configure the SAN Client (K2
Summit Production Client or K2 Media Client with media storage on that particular K2 Media
Server).
