Best Practices for Migrating to AS3000 Servers

This topic presents a best practices method for moving your entire Interplay environment to

AS3000 servers.

To move your Interplay environment to AS3000 servers:

1. Upgrade your Interplay environment to Interplay v2.3 and make sure media is online

and ensure that you can check clips and sequences in and out of the Interplay database.

This ensures that you have a stable environment before you begin the upgrade.

2. Move the server applications to the AS3000 one at a time and make sure they are up and

running before starting the migration of the next server. Avid recommends the following

migration order:

- Interplay Engine and Interplay Archive Engine

-Media Indexer

- Interplay Transfer

- Interplay Capture

- Media Services Engine

- Media Services providers: Copy, Move, Transcode, Archive, etc.

- Stream Server

Following these steps will ensure that you have a stable Interplay environment

throughout the migration process.

As of this writing, the Interplay Engine cluster and Interplay Archive cluster are not

qualified on the AS3000.
