For K2 clients and K2 Media Servers shipped new from Grass Valley with K2
software version 7.0 or higher, these requirements are pre-installed. These
requirements are pre-installed on recovery images for these K2 systems as well.
Therefore, if you suspect a problem with these requirements, do not attempt to install
SiteConfig support requirements. If you must restore SiteConfig support
requirements, re-image the K2 system.
