Do this task if:
•
You are using one or more K2 Capture Services, such HotBin, Pathfire, DG, XML Import,
Export, P2, etc
Do this task on the K2 system running your K2 Capture Service, which is the K2 system that receives
the media to be imported into K2 storage. This can be a K2 Solo Media Server, a stand-alone K2
Summit Production Client, or the K2 Media Server with the role of primary FTP server on a K2
SAN.
When you configure a K2 Capture Service for the first time, the service is set to startup type
Automatic. However, if you upgrade or otherwise re-install your K2 System Software, the service
is re-set to startup type Manual. Therefore, you must re-configure the service after K2 System
Software upgrade/ reinstall in order to set the startup type back to Automatic.

For import capture services, the service checks the source directory for files. If files are present,
the service moves them to the Archive sub-directory. It does not import the files into the
destination bin on the K2 system.

About K2 Dyno software
There are two software components in the K2 Dyno Replay system, as follows:
•
K2 Dyno Server software – This software runs on the K2 Summit/Solo that is controlled by the
K2 Dyno Controller.
