21-8 XMS Configuration Guide
Ingesting media files using the File Ingest Server
A LLOW A SSET R EPLACE Controls whether an asset can be replaced on the XMS (True - default).
If set to False, the ingest fails.
A LLOW C ATEGORY
C REATE
When set to True, subcategories will be created in the Xmedia Server
based on the directory subtree in the watch folder. For example, the
subdirectory Images>Sports might not already exist on the target XMS.
If you place an image file in this subdirectory in the watch folder, the
subfolder will be created in the XMS upon ingest.
If this setting is False, ingest will fail if the category does not exist.
F ILENAME IS RECALL ID When set to True, the Recall ID of assets being saved is added to the file
name of the file being ingested. If this setting is set to False, then the
Recall ID is not added to the file’s name.
F ORCE RECALL ID When the F ILENAME IS RECALL ID setting is True and the I F F ORCE
R ECALL ID is also set to True, if the ingest server encounters a recall ID
conflict prior to saving, the offending asset’s recall ID will be cleared (i.e.
set to empty) prior to ingestion.
Note that clearing a recall ID of an asset with an all-numerical name is
not possible. As a policy, such assets always have Recall ID equal to
their all-numerical name.
When the F ILENAME IS RECALL ID setting is True and the I F F ORCE
R ECALL ID is also set to False, if the ingest server encounters a recall ID
conflict prior to saving, a R ECALL IDC ONFLICT error will be raised.
A UTHOR Specifies the author property of assets ingested. By default, the author
of assets ingested through the watch folder is set to F
ILE I NGEST S ERVER .
K EYWORDS Allows you to specify a semi-colon (;) separated list of keywords to apply
to ingested assets.
P UBLISH L IFESPAN Controls the Publish Lifespan (the number of days the asset is kept on a
device before being unpublished) assigned to ingested assets. The
default value (0) disables the setting, meaning that assets are kept for an
infinite amount of time.
A SSET E XPIRY Controls the Asset Expiry (the number of days the asset is kept on the
Xmedia Server before being deleted) assigned to ingested assets. The
Asset Expiry setting supports three types of values: 0 means never
expires; a positive value (i.e. 365) means that an expiry date of 365 days
from the save date will be set; a fixed date (i.e. 2011-12-31), which must
be in the following format: YYYY-MM-DD.
