control parameters for clip mirroring. The parameters are described in the subsequent
subsections.
Parameter vtr.clipmirror.primary_server.hostname
The vtr.clipmirror.primary_server.hostname control parameter must be
assigned on the clip mirror platform to initiate clip mirror operations. The control value
specifies the server name of the primary SGI Media Server. The following is an example
file entry:
vtr.clipmirror.primary_server.hostname colossus.cia.gov
This entry establishes colossus.cia.gov as the primary SGI Media Server to mirror.
This platform must reside within the network domain defined by the company.
An application can dynamically control clip mirroring with the MVCP SSET command,
shown in the following example:
SSET clipmirror vtr.clipmirror.primary_server.hostname colossus.cia.gov
The vtr.clipmirror.primary_server.hostname control can also terminate clip
mirror operations. Apply the SSET command with a null hostname on the mirror
platform to terminate mirror activities following completion of any in-progress
operations, as shown in the following example:
SSET clipmirror vtr.clipmirror.primary_server.hostname ““
