Migrating, Renaming, or Adding a Stream Server
If you already have a Stream Server in your Interplay environment, you can do one of the
following:
• Replace an existing Stream Server with an AS3000 that uses the same hostname
• Replace an existing Stream Server with an AS3000 that uses a different hostname
• Install a new Stream Server on an AS3000 and add it as an additional Stream Server
To migrate a Stream Server and keep the same hostname:
1. Install a new Stream Server on an AS3000 by following the instructions in the
“Installing and Configuring the Stream Server Software” section of the Avid Interplay
Software Installation and Configuration Guide.
2. Copy the contents of the following folder from the original Stream Server to the same
location on the new Stream Server:
D:\Workgroup_Streams
To migrate a Stream Server and rename it:
1. Install a new Stream Server on an AS3000 by following the instructions in the
“Installing and Configuring the Stream Server Software” section of the Avid Interplay
Software Installation and Configuration Guide but do not add the new Stream Server in
the Server Hostname Settings view in the Interplay Administrator.
2. Copy the contents of the following folder from the original Stream Server to the same
location on the new Stream Server:
D:\Workgroup_Streams
3. Open the Interplay Administrator and log in to the Interplay Engine server for the
workgroup that includes the Stream Server.
4. In the Site Settings section, click the Server Hostname Settings icon.
The Server Hostname Settings view opens.
5. In the Stream Server Settings area, click the Rename button.
The Rename Stream Server and Share dialog box opens.
6. Type the computer name of the system that is now running the Interplay Stream Server.
You do not have to type \\ before the name of the server.
7. Click OK.
The computer name is displayed in the Server Hostname Settings view, along with the
sharename that is the storage location for the required reference movies.
