Reassign a registered resource

This works well when you want to change the encoder in a room but retain all the existing schedules and
recordings that are associated with the encoder for that room.

Alternatively, you can avoid having to register the replacement Pearl Mini with Kaltura. If you apply a
configuration preset to set up the replacement Pearl Mini with the settings from the currently registered Pearl
Mini, the replacement Pearl Mini assumes the identity of the registered resource. For more information about
configuration presets, see

About configuration presets

.

Using a configuration preset can result in two Pearl Mini resources with the same identity, which
can effect recording and the content that's uploaded to Kaltura for scheduled events. Power
down, disconnect from the network, and consider performing a factory reset on one of the Pearl
Mini resources to remove the possibility of having duplicate resources.

You can also use this procedure if you've performed a factory reset, which resulted in an orphaned Kaltura

resource registration and you need to reregister your Pearl Mini using the same resource name to take over
the resource instance that is still registered in Kaltura.

Before you begin, you should already have:

 

l

A Kaltura instance created

 

l

Access to the Kaltura Management Console (KMC)

 

l

Your Kaltura partner ID

 

l

Your Kaltura administrator secret

 

l

Your Kaltura user ID

To enable Pearl Mini as a resource and register with an existing resource name using the Admin panel:

 1. Login to the Admin panel as

, see

.

 2. From the Configuration menu, click

CMS

. The Content management system configuration menu

opens.
