Setting Up The Dncs To Support The Hdd Test - Cisco DVR Configuration Manual

Setting Up the DNCS to Support the HDD Test

Quick Steps for Experienced Users
The following steps summarize the tasks required to set up the BFS to support the
HDD test. Experienced users may prefer to follow this summary.
Users who require step-by-step instructions should go to Adding an HDD Test
Server to the BFS (on page 46).
Important Note for Multiple-Site (RCS-Enabled) Systems: Manually setting up any
BFS server or source must be done for the "AllSites" site only and not for any other
individual sites in your system. Otherwise, the server and source will fail.
1 Add a server with the following characteristics to the Servers tab of the BFS
Administration window.

Server Name: hddtest
Important: This field requires a specific entry. You must enter hddtest in
lowercase letters in this field. Otherwise, set-tops will not receive the
testparam.cfg file.

Selected Sources: Out of Band
Important: Multi-site (RCS-enabled) systems must add the server to only the Site
AllSites Administration window. Adding a server to the BFS Administration
window of individual sites and to the Site AllSites Administration window
causes the server to fail.
Note: To define these characteristics, display the Authorize BFS Server window
by following the quick path for your system configuration:
 Single-site systems: DNCS Administrative Console > Application Interface
Modules tab > BFS Admin > Servers tab > File > New
 Multi-site systems: DNCS Administrative Console > Application Interface
Modules tab > BFS Admin > File > All Sites > Servers tab > File > New
Register the server with the BFS Client by adding a server with the following
2
characteristics to the Broadcast File Server List window.

Server Name: hddtest

Mode: 2-way

Selected Sources: Out of Band
Important: Multi-site (RCS-enabled) systems must add the server to only the All
Sites Broadcast File Server List window. Adding a server to the Broadcast File
Server window of other individual sites and to the All Sites Broadcast File Server
List window prevents the system from setting up a server.
