Prepare SiteConfig for software deployment to K2 SAN devices

Do the following to prepare SiteConfig for the software upgrade.

  1. Make the following files accessible to the SiteConfig control point PC:
    • K2 Summit Client SAN software installation (*.cab) file.
    • K2 Media Server software installation (*.cab) file. Use file with x86 in filename for 32-bit systems and file with x64 in filename for 64-bit systems.
    • SNFS software installation (*.cab) file. Use file with x86 in filename for 32-bit systems and file with x64 in filename for 64-bit systems.
    • Summit SNFS software installation (*.cab) file.
    • Control Point software installation (*.cab) file.
  2. On the K2 Media Server, check for the C:\SNFS directory and then proceed as follows:
    • If C:\SNFS exists on the K2 Media Server, then SNFS 3.5.1 is on the C: drive. In this case you must move SNFS to the D: drive. To do this you must procure the 35c235d.reg file and use it as instructed with special tasks in the upgrade process below. The 35c235d.reg file is on the version 9.6.x.xxxx K2 software CD in the SNFS directory. It can also be obtained at //www.grassvalley.com/downloads.
    • If C:\SNFS does not exist on the K2 Media Server, continue with this procedure. No special tasks are required.
  3. If a newer version of SiteConfig is available for upgrade and you have not yet upgraded SiteConfig, do the following:
    1. From Windows Programs and Features, uninstall the current version of SiteConfig from the control point PC.
    2. Install the new version of SiteConfig on the control point PC.
  4. If not already present in the SiteConfig system description, configure deployment groups as follows:
    • A deployment group that contains your SAN K2 clients
    • A deployment group that contains your K2 Media Servers
    • A deployment group that contains your control point PC
