GRASS VALLEY K2 - Reset Capture Services; Upgrade K2 Dyno Server Software

Reset Capture Services
Do not do this task if:
• You do not use any of the K2 Capture Services.
Do this task if:
• You are using one or more K2 Capture Services, such as the following:
• HotBin service
• Pathfire capture service
• DG capture service
• XML Import capture service
• P2 Import capture service
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.
1. From the Start menu, access the Programs menu and select Grass Valley | K2 Capture
Services.
On a K2 Summit/Solo system, if the write filter is enabled, a message appears

prompted, then repeat this step.

2. Click Apply.
On a K2 Summit/Solo system, a message appears that informs you about the
write filter and prompts you to restart. Click OK and the K2 Summit/Solo system
restarts.
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.
