Command

Argument

Description

ERASEREMOVABLEDISK

(none)

This command erases the entire contents of

 

 

the removable disk drive.

 

 

This is an interactive command that will prompt

 

 

for confirmation that you wish to proceed. The

 

 

process may take several minutes, and the

 

 

DGy will automatically reboot as soon as the

 

 

procedure is complete. Only recorded data is

 

 

stored on the disk. The DGy application

 

 

software is not stored on disk.

 

 

WARNING: This command does not have an

 

 

undo feature.

MOUNT

<ipaddress:sharename>

This DGy 201x optional feature supports the

 

 

ability to mount an external network mapped

 

 

disk drive for recording and replaying clips.

 

 

Note that this capability requires the use of

 

 

Linux or an Allegro network file server software

 

 

for the Windows OS.

 

 

The MOUNT command provides the ability to

 

 

set up a network mapped NFS remote disk

 

 

drive that the DGy can use to store and recall

 

 

recordings. The location of the remote drive is

 

 

identified by the network address (ipaddress)

 

 

and sharename is the name of the shared

 

 

drive as configured in the NFS server on the

 

 

remote host; the syntax of this name may vary

 

 

with different NFS servers.

 

 

It is recommended that the IT manager

 

 

consulted before executing the mounting

 

 

procedure.

 

 

Example: To mount the /usr/dgy NFS share on

 

 

a Linux host at IP node 192.168.1.123, issue

 

 

the following:

 

 

mount 192.168.1.123:/usr/dgy

 

 

Once the disk is mounted the drive will be

 

 

identified in the Clip Browser as \remot.

 

 

To record, play or list clips on the remote drive

 

 

execute the command CD/rgb/mp1 followed by

 

 

the desired clip command (PLAY, RECORD

 

 

...).

 

 

The settings associated with the remote drive

 

 

are saved in non-volatile memory, and the DGy

 

 

will automatically attempt to reconnect after a

 

 

reboot. To select a new remote drive you must

 

 

first unmount the current drive (see the

 

 

UMOUNT command for details).

 

 

Note: After mounting a drive verify that the

 

 

drive is mounted can be accomplished using

 

 

the VOLINFO command (see VOLumeINFO

 

 

for details).
