Requirements for Multiple ISIS Workgroups
Avid ISIS Hardware and Software Configurations
Currently up to three ISIS shared-storage systems are supported for a single workgroup. The
following models are supported, in any combination:
ISIS 2000 systems
ISIS 5000 systems
ISIS 7000 systems
Avid ISIS v4.0 or later server and client software is required.
Each additional ISIS System Director must be in its own Zone 3 subnet (see “Understanding
Multiple ISIS Workgroups” on page 125).
Avid recommends that all ISIS systems are connected through a 10-Gb network. The network
topology should be determined by the site requirements.
Interplay Software
All components in the workgroup must be running Interplay version 2.6.
Accounts
The Interplay workgroup and both ISIS systems must include matching user accounts as follows:
Server Execution User: An account with a user name and password identical to the Server
Execution User must exist on the ISIS system. This account must have read/write access to
the Avid shared storage workspaces that contain media. Use the Avid ISIS Administration
tool to create this account.
Interplay and ISIS users: Accounts with identical user names and passwords must exist on
the Interplay system and the ISIS system.
- The ISIS user account must have read/write privileges on the workspaces you want to
move from and move to.
- The matching Interplay user account must have read/write privileges on the folders you
want to move from and move to.
Media Indexer
Storage for each additional ISIS system needs to be configured in a Media Indexer running on an
AS3000 server. All Media Indexers need to be configured in one high-availability group (HAG).
For more information, see “Configuring Media Indexer for Additional ISIS Systems” on
page 133.
