Performing the Upgrade

The Avid MediaStream Upgrade Notes explain how to perform one or more “Upgrades” to

both hardware and software to support dual controller capability on the MediaStream

network. Each section contains more than one step.

nBefore beginning the upgrade, check to make sure software release 3.20 is installed. If it is

not, download and upgrade your system before beginning this procedure.

Perform the upgrade process in the following sequence:

1. “Initiating the Upgrade” on page 4

2. “Preparing to Install the Bridge and Switch Controllers” on page 5

3. “Installing the Bridge and Switch Controllers” on page 7

4. “Preparing for Configuration” on page 10

5. “Configuring the System” on page 12

cAt all times during the upgrade and installation, follow industry accepted safety

procedures.

Initiating the Upgrade

If you are upgrading in a live network with no redundant capacity, begin with Step 2. If you

are running a redundant system:

1. Move all live traffic onto the backup system prior to beginning the Upgrade process.

2. Stop all encodes.

3. Stop all decodes

Preparing to Install the Bridge and Switch Controllers

Preparing to Install the Bridge and Switch

Controllers

Before the new bridge controller and switch controller can be installed in the PS 1000, the

hardware components in the network must be shut down and powered off. Use the following

procedure to shut down and power off the MSS system.

Shutting Down the System

In order to maintain integrity within the system, the components must be shut down and

powered off in the proper sequence.

To prepare for the hardware installation, shut down and power off the following

components in this sequence:

1. ConnectPlus (see “Shutting Down the ConnectPlus” on page 5)

2. MS Server (see “Shutting Down the Server” on page 5).

3. MSi (see “Shutting Down the MSi” on page 6).

4. PS 1000 (see “Shutting Down the PS 1000” on page 6).

5. FSC (see “Shutting Down the File System Controller” on page 6).

Shutting Down the ConnectPlus

If a ConnectPlus is part of the network, use the following steps.

To shut down an Integrated ConnectPlus:

1. On the MSi desktop, double-click the ConnectPlus Icon to stop all FRP transfers. Do not

power down the MSi at this point.

To shut down an External ConnectPlus:

1. On the MSi desktop, double-click the ConnectPlus Icon to stop all FRP transfers. Power

off the ConnectPlus.

Shutting Down the Server

To safely shut down the server:

1. Open a telnet session to the Console Port.

2. If you have not done so already, login as root (password is

.root

3. Type

stopams –H

and press Enter.

4. Wait for the words:

- Connection to host lost. OK to Hit Reset button.

5. Turn off the two power switches on the back of the MS Server.

Shutting Down the PS 1000

To safely shut down the PS 1000:

1. Power down the PS 1000.

2. Power down the FC switch.

Shutting Down the File System Controller

1. Telnet to the FSC (if necessary).

2. Enter the command

fsc_stop.

Follow the on-screen instructions.

3. Power down the FC switch.

Shutting Down the MSi

The MSi application may be closed at any time the system is idle using the normal Windows

2000 application exit function (click the “x” located at the far right end of the application

title bar). You can power down the MSi PC at any time without adverse effect on the server

node’s external applications.

nBefore you shut down the MSi application, be sure you are not playing or recording using

the MSi Play or Record windows.

1. Shut down the MSi application.

2. Power down the MSi.

Installing the Bridge and Switch Controllers

Use the following instructions to install the bridge and switch controllers into the PS 1000

array. Dual controllers allow the isolation of the dual networks in the MediaStream system

and provide redundancy within the network. The following figures show the front of the

PS 1000 array with the front cover removed and the location of the bridge controllers (front

view) and a rear view shows the location of the switch controllers.

PS 1000 Array (Front - Cover Removed)

PS 1000 Array (Rear - Cover Removed - One Controller)

Each PS 1000 array ships with filler controllers where the bridge controller will be installed.

A metal plate covers the slot where the switch controller is installed. Both the filler

controller and plate cover need to be removed.

cBefore beginning the bridge and switch installation, wear an anti-static wrist strap or

equivalent to protect components from damage during the installation.
