On the
K2/STRATUS system do not exceed the following maximum amounts:
Maximum number of assets/bin: 2000
Maximum bin depth: 9
Maximum number of markers/asset: 100
Maximum K2 database size: 80 MB
If a Dell server that is a GV STRATUS "Engine" server (Proxy Encoder,
Conform, XRE) is on a redundant K2 SAN, Grass Valley recommends two media
network (iSCSI) connections on the server, one to the A side of the K2 SAN and
one to the B side of the K2 SAN. If such a server is connected to just one side
of a redundant K2 SAN and a failover occurs on the K2 SAN, you must shut down
the server if it is on the "failed" side of the K2 SAN.
