ETV Portal Server Admin Guide 35
Adding VOD-WM Servers
Although the VOD-WM Enterprise server supports numerous multicast types, the Portal
Server creates and displays only "File" multicasts which stream a single file. A Windows
Media server administrator can create other multicast types using the Windows Media
Services interface but these multicast types are not supported and may not be displayed in the
Asset Library. Note that the Free Space option (see below) is only available if you run the
EnableQueryDiskSpace.reg utility.
Figure 5. Add VOD-WM Server
Domain or
Machine Name
When the ETV Portal Server and the VOD-WM server reside in the same
domain, this is the name of that domain. When workgroups are being
used, this is the machine name of the VOD-WM server. Note: the machine
name is not the IP address of the server.
User Name The name of a valid user that has administration privileges on the
VOD-WM server or the network domain. If the VOD-WM Server is
within a domain, the name entered here will be a domain user. That
domain user must have administration privileges on the VOD-WM Server.
If the VOD-WM Server is part of a workgroup, the name entered here will
be a local user with administration privileges on the VOD-WM Server. A
local user with administrator privileges having the same name must also
exist on the MCS Portal Server.
Note: The MCS Portal Server and VOD-WM Server(s) must all be within a
domain or part of a workgroup. Any topology that mixes servers in
domains and servers in workgroups will not work or will be extremely
slow.
User Password The valid password of the user specified above.
