Vision

Archive servers allow you to store and manage videos in Flash, WMV, MPEG-2, and MPEG-4 format
for future use. The stored content can then be used to build your own channel and/or allow users to access it
with Video on Demand. Vision

Archive has an integrated search feature that allows you to find content based
on titles and metadata. See the
section on page 85 for more information.
The following steps show you how to add an additional 15TB or 24TB of Disk storage to an existing archive
server:
1.
Connect an SAS cable to the IN port on the rear of the V2-PVA (FIG. 20) or V2-STORAGE-2400
Expansion Storage device (FIG. 21). Connect the other end of the cable to the first SAS port on the rear
of the Archive Video on Demand server.
2.
Log in to the Admin server (see the
Starting and Accessing Vision2
information.)
3.
Select
Storage
.
4.
Set the archive server to the I: drive.
The Archive Video on Demand server must have LDAP enabled and configured prior to importing it into a
Master so a client can access the archives on the Video on Demand server. See the
section on page 63 for more information.
Older model Video on Demand servers may require you to install the
V2-STORAGE-EXT800 External RAID Controller to be able to connect to the
V2-STORAGE-2400 server.
