Importing a SiteConfig system description

You can import a SiteConfig system description that contains a K2 SAN into the K2Config
application. You should do this only after the K2 SAN is fully complete and implemented in
SiteConfig, as changes are not automatically synchronized between SiteConfig and K2Config after
the import.

When you import a SiteConfig system description, K2Config identifies your SAN devices, defines
the SAN, and displays the unconfigured SAN in the tree view. Therefore you do not need to define
the K2 SAN in K2Config. You can skip this task and instead begin your work in K2Config by
configuring the first K2 Media Server.

1. In the K2Config application, click

File | Import SiteConfig

.

2. Browse to and select the system configuration file.

A K2 System Information dialog box opens.

3. In the drop-down list, select the type of K2 SAN that you are importing.

4. If a redundant K2 SAN, select “…

failover capabilities

…”

5. Click

OK

.

6. The SAN appears in the K2Config application.
