Installation guide

If you have installed Curator on a single-host, Archive, or Network Gateway server, configure the
Curator settings. The Curator settings control how all Curators process images for the web cache.
Although the Curator settings do not exist in the map_ini table when the system is first installed, the
default behavior applies. To change the default behavior to suit your site, add the appropriate settings
and values.
To configure Curator INI settings
1. In CLUI, to add a new Curator setting, type:
INSERT INTO map_ini (ini_section, ini_key, ini_value) VALUES ('CURATOR',
'<ini_key>'<ini_value>')
or
To update an existing Curator setting, type:
UPDATE map_ini SET ini_value=<ini_value> WHERE ini_section="CURATOR" AND
ini_key="<ini_key>"
where <ini_key> is the Curator setting to change and <ini_value> is the updated value.
2. To prompt any Curator processes that are running to refresh their configuration settings for
subsequent jobs, type:
SIGNAL database_updated
Curator INI settings: Reference
The following table explains the Curator INI keys and their possible values.

T—Delete the study from the image cache when the web
representation is created. Curator does not delete images or
FAUTO_DELETE
other non-image objects from the image cache that it has not
created web representations for. The web cache copy cannot
be sent to other PACS systems.
F—Keep the image cache version as well as the web cache
version. The image cache copy can be sent to other PACS
systems.
Note:
Images compressed using Mitra Wavelet compression take
longer to decompress than images compressed using
standard compression. To provide faster access to images
for local clients, configure Curator to keep image cache
copy.
We do not recommend deleting the image cache copy unless
the server is configured to function strictly as a web server.
