Ports used by K2 services
The following ports are used by the applications and system tools of the K2 family of
products:
Synchronizing system clocks
It is required that the system clocks on the devices of the K2 Storage System be kept
synchronized. The main purpose for this time synchronization is so that entries in the
various logs on the K2 Storage System devices can be correlated. The following
procedure describes a mechanism by which clocks are synchronized. If your facility
has other mechanisms by which you synchronize system clocks, you can use your
own methods, as long as it accomplishes the goal of keeping the system clocks
synchronized.
To synchronize system clocks, do the following:
1. Designate a K2 Media Server as the time server.
2. On each K2 Media Client, iSCSI client, and any additional K2 Media Servers, in
the Windows
Control Panel open Date and Time.
3. On the
Internet Time tab, enter the K2 Media Server that is the time server.
