K2 Media Servers with role of file system server. If a redundant SAN, you must
do this task on both primary and backup K2 Media Server.

1. On a K2 Media Server, using Notepad, open the media file system (SNFS)

configuration file:

The configuration file can be either

D:\SNFS\config\default.cfg.

or

D:\SNFS\config\gvfs_hostname.cfg

, where

hostname

is the name of the

primary file system server (FSM).

2. Locate the WindowsSecurity setting and proceed as follows:

If WindowsSecurity is set to Yes, skip the remainder of this procedure. Do not
modify or save the SNFS configuration file.

If WindowsSecurity is set to No, continue with this procedure.

3. On a K2 Media Server, verify, and if necessary modify, settings for required values

as follows:

# *********************************************************

# A global section for defining file system-wide parameters

# *********************************************************

.

WindowsSecurity No

GlobalSuperUser Yes

UnixDirectoryCreationModeOnWindows 0777

UnixFileCreationModeOnWindows 0666

.

4. Close, and if necessary save, the SNFS configuration file.

If you made changes, the K2 system must be restarted for the changes to take effect.

If you made changes to

UnixDirectoryCreationModeOnWindows

and

UnixFileCreationModeOnWindows

parameters, to apply changes to existing assets

you must delete and then re-create files and/or bins, such as HotBins.

Configure HotBin

If a K2 SAN, the SNFS configuration file must have settings as follows:

If Windows Security is No, GlobalSuperUser must be set to Yes.

If Windows Security is Yes, no GlobalSuperUser setting is required.

Configure a HotBin on the K2 system to receive the finished media from Final Cut
Pro.

1. In K2 AppCenter, create a bin with an appropriate name, such as "dstBin".

2. Configure

dstBin

as a HotBin.
