■ Optional: Flag the partition as shared by uncommenting the Shared
keyword and setting it to True.
NOTE Always set the Shared keyword to True for a SAN volume.
■ Optional: In the [DefaultFileFormats] section, specify the
preferred file format for each bit depth. Uncomment the desired bit
depth and set the file format to one of the supported formats. The
frames for each bit depth will be saved to the media storage using
the file formats specified here (for example DPX or JPG).
NOTE The settings in the [DefaultFileFormats] section apply to
all volumes. If you want to customize file format settings for certain
volumes, copy the file format lines to the [Partition] section for the
respective volumes. Settings defined in a [Partition] section overwrite
the settings in the [DefaultFileFormats] section.
■ Optional: If using the JPG file format, uncomment the
JpegCompressionFactor keyword and set JPEG compression to a
value between 0 and 100.
■ Optional: To prevent the use of symbolic links across filesystems,
uncomment the SymlinkAcrossFilesystems=False keyword.
■ Save and close the stone+wire.cfg file.
7 If this is the first filesystem you are configuring for this workstation,
perform the following additional steps:
■ Type the following command to display the contents of the
/usr/discreet/sw/cfg/sw_framestore_map file:
cat /usr/discreet/sw/cfg/sw_framestore_map
■ Locate the ID value in the FRAMESTORE line of the command output.
For example:
FRAMESTORE=smoke1 HADDR=192.168.1.152 ID=152
■ Write down the ID number.
■ Open /usr/discreet/sw/cfg/sw_storage.cfg in a text editor (create it if it
does not exist) and enter the ID value you wrote down in the previous
step. For example, if the ID value is 152, the sw_storage.cfg file should
now look like this:
[Framestore]
ID=152
■ Save and close sw_storage.cfg.
