Summit MDI standalone settings

These Summit MDI settings for standalone and/or Summit MDI settings for SAN are required on all GV STRATUS systems.

This type of MDI manages a K2 Summit system. This topic describes settings when the type of system is specified as Standalone.

When you have multiple Summit MDIs, they must each have their own process port number. For this purpose, numbers 9160 - 9169 increment in the Port field.

Setting or button	Description
MDI Type	The Managed Device Interface (MDI) type to which these settings apply.
MDI Name	A name for this instance of the MDI type. Do not use spaces in the MDI name.
Hostname of device running the MDI	The name of the GV STRATUS server that hosts this MDI.
Port number	The process port for this instance of the MDI type. Each instance must have its own process port. Port numbers must be in range 9160-9169.
Type of K2 device	Specifies either SAN-attached K2 Summit system or Standalone K2 Summit system. When Standalone is selected, settings are as follows.
Select K2 Standalone	The standalone K2 Summit system that this MDI accesses.
Maximum concurrent transfers	The maximum number of concurrent transfers allowed. The maximum is set in K2Config. You may select the maximum or a lesser number. Refer to your system design.
User Name	The user name that this MDI uses to access the K2 Summit system. This is the internal system account, which by default is GVAdmin.
Domain	If on a domain, the domain that manages the account that this MDI uses to access the K2 Summit system. Note: Do not enter a domain or otherwise modify account settings except under the supervision of qualified Grass Valley Support personnel. Extensive system configuration is required to achieve a working GV STRATUS system.
Password	The password that this MDI uses to access the K2 Summit system.
FTP Server Name	The FTP server name for the remote K2 Summit system. For the typical system where there is a separate FTP network, this is the name of the K2 SAN's FTP server with the `_he0` suffix added. The `_he0` suffix specifies the FTP network.
FTP User Account	The FTP user name for the K2 Summit system this MDI accesses. Typically this is `movie`.
FTP Password	The FTP password for the K2 Summit system this MDI accesses. When this field is blank the system automatically uses the default password.

If you changed MDI settings, you must restart the GV STRATUS Core server system and the K2 Summit system. If SAN MDI settings, you must restart the entire K2 SAN system, including K2 Media Servers, attached K2 Summit systems, and other SAN clients. If you are changing multiple K2 Summit MDI settings, you can make all those settings first before restarting these systems. Restarting the systems once is sufficient for multiple K2 Summit MDI settings changes.
