Step 9: Configure iNEWS for MOS Replication (Optional)
MOS replication requires some configuration on the iNEWS Server that
includes:
• Adding a COM session to the iNEWS Server license. Contact Avid to
purchase the COM session and have Customer Support add it to your
iNEWS Server license.
• Creating an iNEWS user account for MOS replication.
• Creating a write group for MOS replication.
• Creating device-specific queues to store replicated MOS items.
• Ensuring the correct database traits and forms are assigned to the
queues.
• Ensuring that write permissions are assigned to the group containing
only the MOS replication user account for all device-specific queues
that will store replicated MOS items. All other iNEWS users should
have read-only permission to those queues.

Other configuration required for MOS replication, which must be done on
the MOS Gateway Server, is explained in Chapter5. See “Using the
MosAdmin Application” on page 91 for more information.
