About the file
sgconfig_<sgname>.txt
There must be
only one file which name starts with
sgconfig_
on the USB device
. If several files
match this criteria, the StreamGroomer will ignore them and boot parameters won’t be updated.
You also have access to the boot menu by Telnet, RSH or SSH to the SG from the SGM (use the boot user). Only one person
can be connected on the boot menu at a time.

STEPS TO LOAD THE SG CONFIGURATION FILE
In order to download boot parameters into a StreamGroomer from the USB key, follow the steps:
1.
Set the StreamGroomer in Boot mode.
2.
Insert the USB key into the StreamGroomer with the file
sgconfig_<sgname>.txt
.
3.
Power down and up. The SG must reboot.
4.
Wait for a few minutes until the StreamGroomer has booted entirely.
5.
Unplug the USB key and check the
sgstatus_<sgname>.txt
file.
Set the SG in boot mode
The StreamGroomer must be restarted in
Boot mode
in order to process the file
sgconfig_<sgname>.txt
. If StreamGroomer is not in Boot mode, the file on the USB device will be
ignored and the parameters of the configuration file won’t be applied.
When a USB key is plugged in a StreamGroomer and it is rebooted, the following operations are automatically performed by
the SG:
1.
The SG detects the USB key and checks that it can write on the device.
2.
The SG search on the device for a file named
sgconfig_<sgname>.txt
3.
It check and imports the security parameters (password, optional strong SSH authentication…)
4.
The SG imports the other parameters.
5.
Finally, the SG generates a status of the procedure in the file named
sgstatus_<sgname>.txt
on the USB key.
