Updating Firmware of DVG Boards
Although the DVG board firmware is copied to /u
sr/dvg/ during OVS installation, it may not be
compatible with your machine. You can burn your firmware through the FastServe | Live Edit /
FastServe | Ingest Web Settings, or using the FastServe | Live Edit Controller. After upgrading your
operating system from CentOS 5 to CentOS7, the firmware is already burnt but the “burning_status”
file is missing. The below procedure describes how to add it.
To add a burning status file:
1. Connect to your console with PuTTY or other terminal emulator.
2. Check what firmware is burned and create a matched /tmp/burning_status:
dvgflash -board 0 -reconf -list
vim /tmp/burning_status
Depending on the codec, you can receive following response:
For DNX For XDCAM
SUCCESS SUCCESS
DNX XDCAM
HD HD
3. (Option) Burn firmware for your desired format standard:
/data/VS/bin/burn_dvg_flash <format_name>
Example:
/data/VS/bin/burn_dvg_flash XDCAM HD
n
You can also easily burn the firmware for each codec in the WebSettings. It is highly recommended to
use the WebSettings for this procedure.
4. Press Enter.
Updating Your License
To activate your license, note your Machine Id and send it to Avid support.
To get the FastServe | Live Edit or FastServe | Ingest Machine Id:
1. Connect to your console with PuTTY or other terminal emulator.
2. Get the Machine Id by typing:
/usr/local/orad/getAuthoId > /usr/local/orad/autId

Once you receive your license from Avid
, enter the license number to the license.dat file. To create
this file, use the following commands:
