Verifying the GV I/O Ingest Appliance configuration

Within the GV STRATUS system, do the following to verify the GV I/O Ingest Appliance is configured properly. Grass Valley recommends the GV STRATUS Control Panel is only configured on the Core server:

For GV I/O Ingest Appliance with iSCSI connection, do the following:
- Run the iSCSI Initiator on each GV I/O server before attempting to configure them in K2Config.
- Add the GV I/O server(s) as GV I/O Live Ingest & Playback devices and configure them as you would a K2 Summit client.
  Note: GV I/O servers can only have one iSCSI connection. If the GV I/O server is configured to a Fail-over SAN, use the primary iSCSI network.
- Sync K2Config to the GV STRATUS Core server.
In the GV STRATUS Control Panel application, do the following:
- Verify that you can see the STRATUS IO Appliance in the Core | K2 Storage | K2 SAN Storage tab.
- In Core | Proxy Config | Proxy Settings tab, resave the proxy settings and verify in Test Connections tab that the STRATUS IO Appliance Device Types are connected with the proxy server.
- In Core | MDI Configuration settings, resave all Summit MDIs with GV I/O servers attached.
- Reboot the GV I/O servers and wait for them to come back up.
- In the General | Format tab, configure the desired formats for the GV I/O channels.
- In the General | Channels | I/O Appliances tab, verify that the GV I/O channels are displayed. The Input Signal column should display the feeds available to the channels. Configure the channels to their appropriate Formats.
- To add GV I/O Appliance channels to the Scheduler tool: In the Applications | Ingest | Channel Setup tab, add one or more GVIO Device channels:
  - Type of K2 device: Select GVIO Device.
  - SAN Name: Choose a SAN with one or more GV I/O devices.
  - Primary Device: Select the desired GV I/O device in the drop-down list.
In the GV STRATUS application, do the following:
- In the Scheduler tool, verify that GV I/O channels configured in Ingest settings of the GV STRATUS Control Panel are displayed and able to record.
- To add GV I/O Appliance channels to Channel Panel: In the Navigator panel, expand the Tools node and select Channel Panels. Right-click on the desired Channel Panel and select Open With | Inspector.
  - Verify that all configured GV I/O Ingest Appliances are displayed.
  - Add one or more channels from a GV I/O Ingest Appliance and verify that you can record.
  - Verify that GV I/O channels have a … button and you can set the Timecode Source to Time of Day or a specific Start Time for each GV I/O channel.
