Using the Avid Service Framework on a Mac OS X System
You do not have to connect to the Avid Service Framework (ASF) in order to connect to the
Media Indexer HAG. However, you can configure your connection to the ASF workgroup for the
following situations:
• If your editing system is in a different subnet from the Media Indexer server you may need to
configure ASF and connect to the Lookup service.
• If you would like to configure ASF in order to view your system in the Service
Configuration tool on other systems. If you do not configure ASF, the Mac system will not
display in the Service Configuration tool.
Use one of the following methods to connect to the workgroup on a Mac OS X system:
• If your Interplay environment has only one Lookup Service, you can run the configure.sh
script to change the workgroup name and the name of the Lookup Service.
• If your system has two Lookup services, you must run the Interplay Administrator tool as
root to add both Lookup services. The configure.sh command only configures for one
Lookup service.
