Chapter22 Plan for and Manage Emergencies
Procedures
Tip Does your organization prefer that one or more screen zones show assets that are centrally editable in real time?
Ifso, you can stage the editable assets remotely on one of your external deployment servers instead of staging them locally on your
DMPs. Then, the people in your organization who are entrusted to edit these assets can do so in real time.
However, our factory-default security policy on DMPs will prevent this unless you explicitly allow it in DMPDM. To
allow it, you must log in to DMPDM5.4 and disable its Web Security option.
After an emergency has stopped and normal scheduling has resumed on a DMP group and its children,
any playlist or presentation that was scheduled for playback at that time will start from the beginning.
