Content
Management
The RM is responsible for removing unused or out-of-date recordings.
How content is deleted depends on whether the recordings are event-based or continuous record. If
the recording is event-based, you must delete the content manually from the storage server; if the
recording is CR, the content is automatically deleted based on how you have configured your system.
How
EBR
Content
is
Stored
Event-based recording content must be manually deleted from the storage server. To delete EBR
content, you must delete the relevant files from the storage server you configured in the
CONFIGURATION > NODES > Storage Mounts
menu.
EBR
Storage
Structure
For NFS or GPFS, when manually deleting EBR content, you should delete the EBR-based directory and
all its contents, including sub-directories.
For example, assume you have created an EBR schedule named, “Program-1.” The file structure for this
EBR schedule will look like this:
.
./<Storage Mount Location>/Program-1/<Segment Directories & manifest>/
<content>.ts
The files in the
Program-1
directory will contain manifest files and content directories that will look
similar to the following:
9. When using MSS as an output format, a “
/Manifest
” must be added to the “index.ism” portion as follows:
index.ism/Manifest
# pwd
/nfs1/nDVR/Program-1
# ls -l
