Configure Backburner services
Backburner Server and Backburner Manager are installed with the Creative Finishing application, and are
set to run automatically when the workstation starts. By default, the Backburner Server installed on the
workstation communicates with the locally-installed Backburner Manager.
To configure Backburner services:
1 Ensure Backburner Server is set to run automatically on your workstation: chkconfig –-list | grep
-i backburner_server. If backburner_server is not set to on for run levels 3, 4, and 5, enable it:
1 chkconfig backburner_server on
2 /etc/init.d/backburner_server restart
2 Decide if you want to use the locally installed Backburner Manager, or a centralized Manager installed
on another system in your network. See Deploying on networked hardware (page 81).
3 Make sure the following Backburner keywords in the /usr/discreet/<product_home>/cfg/init.cfg
file are configured properly.
SettingKeyword
Set <hostname> to the hostname or IP address of the workstation running
Backburner Manager. This hostname or IP address must match the one in
BackburnerManagerHostname <host-
name>
the /usr/discreet/backburner/cfg/manager.host file. If it does
not, background Wire transfers will fail.
Set <priority> to a value from 0 to 100. The default is 50.BackburnerManagerPriority <prior-
ity>
