Configuring the K2 Coder
The K2 Coder is qualified as configured in the provided Import Watch Folder
template, Export Watch Folder template, and K2 presets. Do not modify settings,
folders, or bins except as specified in these instructions.
Configure SNFS
By default, the media file system (SNFS) is set with Fast Failover Detection enabled.
You must disable this setting so that if one or more transcode operations consume all
CPU processes for an extended length of time, a media file system failover is not
triggered.
1. Click Start | All Programs | StorNext File System | Client Configuration .
The StorNext File System Client Properties dialog box opens.
2. On the Mount Options tab, un-check Fast Failover Detection .
3. Click OK to save settings and close.
Testing default import
Before modifying default transcode configuration, you should do a short test of the
default import functionality to verify that your installation so far is correct.
1. Open Carbon Admin and click the Watch Folders tab.
2. For ImportWatchFolderTemplate make sure that the check box in the Active
column is checked.
3. Copy a SD file into V:\K2Coder\SourceFiles.
