To verify space: 1. Using SystemManager, click the Servers icon on the Configuration tab to access the Servers List page. 2. Locate the Total Disk Space and Free Disk Space for each ContentServer. For ContentServer 3000 series, the total Disk Space will vary according to your RAID configuration and drive type. Refer to Supported RAID Configurations for a description of the supported 130 Installation and Configuration Guide

System Configuration configurations. The Free Disk Space should be 100%. Refer to the Omneon SystemManager User Guide for more information. Verifying NFS Share is Exported by ContentBridge To verify that each ContentBridge has exported the NFS share correctly: 1. Type the following command using the client Linux machine: showmount –e (ContentBridge IP address or host name) You should see the following output (“cb1.mediagrid.com” is an example host name): Export list for cb1.mediagrid.com: /mnt/omfs/mds/csloh/omfs/fs0 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 /mnt/omfs/mds/omneon/omfs/fs0 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 The output from the command “showmount -e cb1.mediagrid.com” lists /mnt/omfs/mds/omneon/omfs/fs0 as one of the NFS shares available from the ContentBridge. To mount the NFS share: Type the following using the Linux client machine: mount –t nfs cb1.mediagrid.com: /mnt/omfs/mds/omneon/omfs/fs0 /mnt Opening Network Ports to Enable Client Access Specific network ports must be open to enable client access to Omneon MediaGrid. This is particularly important if any security measures, including firewalls, are in place. Omneon MediaGrid clients must connect to and communicate on TCP ports 10600-10604; UDP port 111 must be open as well. Note that these ports must be open for the entire subnet in which Omneon MediaGrid is contained. Contact the customer network administrator for assistance. Managing Memory Usage by the File System Driver The amount of memory allocated to memory buffers is controllable. Each client FSD (Linux, Windows, and Macintosh) allocates memory buffers to optimize performance. This allocation of memory takes memory away from application use. In general, the memory usage of the FSDs should be minimized unless an application requires a large number of simultaneous files to be open. The following parameters are available to control memory usage by each FSD. • Filelimit (Linux FSD only). This parameter controls the maximum number of simultaneously open files the Linux FSD supports. The default value is 16. Increase this value as necessary to support an application’s requirements. Note that increasing this value increases the amount of memory used by the Linux FSD. Increasing it too much may prevent an application from running due to memory starvation.
