Step 15: Upgrade connected K2 clients
step and subsequent steps on the K2 Media Server.
2. When all the K2 Media Servers on the K2 Storage System have been upgraded,
continue with the next step “Step 15: Upgrade connected K2 clients”
Step 15: Upgrade connected K2 clients
After K2 Media Servers are upgraded, upgrade all connected K2 Media Clients and
K2 appliances to the same version of software. For K2 Media Clients, refer to the K2
Media Client Release Notes. For K2 appliances, refer to the appropriate procedure
later in these release notes. Do not resume media access on a K2 Media Client or a K2
appliance until it is upgraded.
NOTE: You must restart after installing K2 software.
After upgrading all connected K2 Media Clients and K2 appliances, continue with the
upgrade steps in these K2 Storage System Release Notes and complete the upgrade to
the K2 Storage System.
Step 16: Upgrade connected generic clients
Do not do this step if:
• The only clients on the K2 Storage System are K2 Media Clients and K2
appliances. Skip ahead to “Step 17: Upgrade software on Control Point PC”.
Do this step if:
• You have clients on the K2 Storage System that are not K2 Media Clients or K2
appliances. This is the case if you have Aurora Edit workstations or other Aurora
products that use the shared storage of the K2 Storage System.
Upgrade all remaining client devices on the K2 Storage System. Refer to the release
notes or other upgrade instructions for the client product.
NOTE: You must restart after installing K2 software.
Step 17: Upgrade software on Control Point PC
To upgrade Control Point software, do the following:
1. Use the Windows
Add/Remove Programs control panel and remove K2 control
point software.
2. Insert the version 3.2.74 K2 System Software CD in the Control Point PC’s CD
drive or otherwise access the version 3.2.74 installation files.
3. Run the Control Point installation program (setup.exe). No special procedures are
required.
4. From the K2 System Configuration application, use Server Control Panel to verify
that the media file system and the media database is active and fully functional.
You must upgrade the control point PC if it is to access an upgraded K2 Media Client.
K2 software versions lower than 3.2 do not support K2 security features, therefore a
control point PC at a lower version is not authorized to access an upgraded K2 Media
Client.
