Installing the Interplay Archive Engine Software
94
The Interplay Archive Engine maintains a database that can be accessed through Interplay
Access and the Interplay Administrator tool. For information on configuring the server, see the
Avid Interplay Engine and Avid Archive Engine Administration Guide.
For information on using Interplay Access on an Archive database, or archiving from an Avid
editing application, see the Avid Interplay Media Services Setup and User’s Guide.
To install the Interplay Archive Engine software:
1. Select the following from the Interplay Server Installer Main Menu:
Servers > Avid Interplay Archive Engine
The Install Avid Interplay Archive Engine window opens.
2. Click Avid Interplay Archive to install the Interplay Archive Engine on the system. See
“Installing the Avid Interplay Engine Software” on page 33 and start at step 6.
3. Click Avid Interplay Access to install Interplay Access on the system. See “Installing Avid
Interplay Access” on page 43.
Installing the FlashNet Client Software
Typically your Software Generation Limited (SGL) representative installs and configures the
FlashNet client software when he or she configures the rest of the archiving system. For
information on using the FlashNet client, see the documentation provided by your SGL
representative.
SGL Direct Connect to Shared Storage
Avid Interplay v2.6 and v2.7 support SGL FlashNet v6.4.x. This version of SGL FlashNet allows
the FlashNet server to directly connect to an Avid ISIS shared-storage system through a 1-GB
connection, dual-connected on the same subnet to the ISIS System Director in Zone 1. SGL
FlashNet v6.4.x is qualified with Avid ISIS 7000 systems. ISIS v4.0 or later client software must
be installed on the FlashNet server.
This configuration results in a significant performance increase for Interplay archive and restore
operations.
Your SGL representative installs and configures the FlashNet client software on the Archive
Provider. After installing the FlashNet client on the provider, the representative needs to create a
registry key, as follows:
1. In a Command Prompt window, type
regedit
to open the Registry Editor.
2. Locate and select the following registry key:
\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Software
Generation\Wow6432Node\FlashNet6.
