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.

Domain or

When the ETV Portal Server and the VOD-WM server reside in the same

Machine Name

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.
