Removing a K2 Media Server

In a functioning K2 SAN, you should not permanently remove a K2 Media Server that takes the
role of media file system/metadata server, as this changes system capabilities and results in the
failure of some or all of the media operations for which the system was designed. Remove a K2
Media Server only under the direct supervision of qualified Grass Valley personnel.

If you are replacing a faulty server with a replacement server, follow the documented procedure.

Replacing a K2 Media Server

The requirements for replacing a K2 Media Server on an existing K2 SAN are as follows:

You must be logged in to the K2Config application with permissions equivalent to K2
administrator or higher.

Use this procedure if a K2 Media Server in a working system is faulty or otherwise needs to be
replaced with a new K2 Media Server.

NOTE: If you are replacing a non-redundant media file system/metadata server, you lose all
media during the replacement process.
