Adding K2 Media Clients to the K2 Storage System
Adding K2 Media Clients to the K2 Storage System
For each of your K2 Media Clients, use the procedures in this section to configure for
operation using the K2 Storage System as the shared media storage.
Before beginning with these procedures, make sure the K2 Storage System and the
K2 Media Clients are prepared as specified in the sections earlier in this chapter.
Cabling must be complete, K2 Media Clients must be communicating on the control
network, and the K2 Storage System must have a viable media file system.
Configuring a K2 Media Client for the K2 Storage System
Configure a K2 Media Client as follows:
1. On the K2 configuration control point PC, open the K2 System Configuration
application. A login dialog box opens.
2. Log in to the K2 System Configuration application with the correct administrator
account. By default this as follows:
• Username: Administrator
• Password: adminK2
Refer to the security topic elsewhere in this manual for more information about
administrator accounts and logging in to applications.
3. In the K2 System Configuration application tree view, verify that the K2 Storage
System is correctly defined.You should see the correct number of K2 Media
Clients. If the correct number of K2 Media Clients is not currently added to the K2
Storage System, you can add or remove clients now (before clients are configured),
as follows:
• To add a client, select the top node of the storage system and click the Add
Device button
• To remove a client, select an unconfigured K2 Media Client and click the
Remove button.
4. Select the top K2 Media Client.
