Setup guide
To specify the network interfaces to be used by Wire:
1 Open the /usr/discreet/sw/cfg/sw_framestore_map file in a text editor.
2 Specify the network interfaces that you will use for Wire networking in
the [INTERFACES] section. This task must be performed on every host
that is a part of the Wire network.
NOTE The interfaces are listed in the order of preference. Wire will try to
connect to other hosts using the first interface in the list first.
For example:
[INTERFACES]
FRAMESTORE=kamloops
PROT=IB_SDP IADDR=192.168.0.1 DEV=1
PROT=TCP IADDR=10.0.0.5 DEV=1
■ The FRAMESTORE keyword sets the name that identifies the framestore
when remote hosts attempt to connect to it.
■ The PROT keyword defines the network protocol used to communicate
to the framestore: TCP for TCP/IP or IB_SDP for InfiniBand.
■ The IADDR keyword specifies the IP address of the network card.
NOTE If you are using an InfiniBand card, make sure the IADDR is different
from the host address (HADDR) of the card, otherwise, the workstation
sends house network traffic through the InfiniBand network and impairs
Wire transfers.
To configure Wire self-discovery:
1 Open the /usr/discreet/sw/cfg/sw_probed_cfg file in a text editor.
2 Make sure the value of the Port keyword matches the value used by the
other workstations in your network.
3 Make sure the SelfDiscovery parameter is set to “yes”.
If these values are set properly, Stone and Wire uses its self-discovery
mechanism to locate all other Wire hosts on your network and make
their framestores accessible to your application.
To enable remote access to clip libraries, projects, users and setups:
1 Open the /etc/exports file in a text editor.
2 specify all directories you want remote hosts to be able to access.
