If your SNFS file system name is currently “default”, when you make a new file
system the name changes to “gvfs_hostname”, where hostname is the name of the
primary FSM.
To make a new media file system, do the following:
1. In Storage Utility, click Tools | Make New File System .
The Settings dialog box opens.
2. Configure the Settings dialog box as follows:
• For Real Time Input Output (RTIOs), enter the number specified for the design
of your K2 SAN. Contact your Grass Valley representative if you do not know
this number.
• For Windows Security on a K2 SAN with only K2 clients, leave this setting
unchecked.
• For Windows Security on a K2 SAN with Aurora Edits, refer to the Aurora Edit
Installation and Configuration Guide.
Click OK . The Configuration File dialog box opens.
3. On the Configuration File dialog box, you can view media file system settings, but
do not attempt to change them. Click Accept .
A “Making new file system. Please wait” message box displays progress.
4. When a message “Succeeded to make the new file system…” appears, click OK .
5. Restart the K2 Media Server.
6. You now have a blank (empty) file system. Proceed as follows:
• On a 7.x SAN, you also have a blank database. Do not perform additional
operations on the database. Skip to the next step in this procedure.
• On a 3.x SAN, the media database still contains references to media files which
are no longer present in the file system. To clear the media database do the
following:
