For a system in which all devices are new from Grass Valley with one or more
stand-alone K2 systems, you first create a system description and add your
stand-alone K2 systems, than add other devices as appropriate. Refer to the K2
System Guide for instructions on creating the system description and adding your
stand-alone K2 systems.
•
For a system with existing devices running earlier software, you must first migrate
the system to become a SiteConfig managed system. Refer to SiteConfig Migration
Instructions for instructions on migrating your devices to be SiteConfig managed
devices.
If you are using a different taskflow, use the topics in this manual as appropriate and
refer to the SiteConfig User Manual or SiteConfig Help Topics for additional
information.
Your devices must be in a SiteConfig system description in order to be managed by
SiteConfig. When you already have a system description in place, you should use
SiteConfig to modify this system description and add your devices. You can do this
in your planning phase, even before you have devices installed or cabled. Your goal
is to have the SiteConfig system description accurately represent all aspects of your
devices and networks before you begin actually implementing any networking or other
configuration tasks for those devices.
Adding NAS to system description
The NAS is a K2 nearline SAN, so instructions for cabling, networking, and
configuration are in the K2 SAN Installation and Service Manual. If the NAS is not
already included in the SiteConfig system description, add it as follows.
1. In the
Network Configuration | Devices
tree view, right-click the
Site
node that
includes your K2 SAN and other connected devices and select
Add Site
.
In this context, "Site" is a distinct system, such as a K2 SAN or an Aurora Browse
system.
The New Site Wizard opens.
