Specifying the Interplay Engine Service Name
In this dialog box, type the name of the Interplay Engine service.
To specify the Interplay Engine name:
1. Specify the public names for the Avid Interplay Engine service by typing the following
values:
- The Network Name will be associated with the virtual IP Address that you entered in the
previous Interplay Engine Details dialog box. This is the Interplay Engine service name
(see
“List of IP Addresses and Network Names” on page 31). It must be a new, unused
name, and must be registered in the DNS so that clients can find the server without
having to specify its address.
- The Server Name is used by clients to identify the server. If you only use Avid Interplay
Clients on Windows computers, you can use the Network Name as the server name. If
you use several platforms as client systems, such as Macintosh
®
and Linux
®
you need to
specify the static IP address that you entered for the resource group in the previous
dialog box. Macintosh systems are not always able to map server names to IP addresses.
If you type a static IP address, make sure this IP address is not provided by a DHCP
server.
2. Click Next.
The Specify Destination Location dialog box opens.
