Connecting Systems Directly to the Lookup Service
106
n
There is no load balancing between Lookup Services. If you have two LUS systems they operate
independently of each other. All Framework services register with both services. To ensure
connectivity between subnets, use Unicast Discovery to connect all of your clients to both LUS.
Connecting Systems Directly to the Lookup Service
For systems on remote subnets, Avid recommends that you connect directly to the Lookup
service using a technique known as Unicast Discovery.
The main drawback to using the Unicast Discovery connection method is that if there are
multiple systems running the lookup service, you should connect to each one. This can take a lot
of configuration time in a large installation. If you don’t connect to all of the Lookup service
systems, if the one you are connected to goes down you lose your connection to the Service
Framework.
To directly connect a system to a Lookup service:
1. Determine the fully qualified domain name of the system running the Lookup service. For
example, the following defines the domain name of the server named DocWG:
docwg.global.avidww.com
2. On the system on the remote subnet, click the Start button, and then select All Programs >
Avid > Service Framework > Avid Workgroup Properties.
3. Click the Lookup tab.
4. Select the Workgroup that you want to connect to and click Add in the Lookup services
window.
n
If the name of the workgroup that you need does not appear in the Workgroup area, click the Add
button and add the entry. Remember that the name is case sensitive.
5. In the Lookup services area, type in the fully qualified domain name of the system running
the Lookup service.
6. Leave the port value at the default 4160.
7. Click Expected and click OK.
8. The domain name appears in the Lookup services area, as shown in the following example.
