Configuring the Streamer for BMS Connectivity
The Streamer ISA page provides all the configurable parameters to configure your CDS to communicate
stream services with the ISA/OpenStream Business Management System.
Note The Streamer BMS page is only used in non-Content Storage systems.
The Streamer ISA OpenStream settings are used to set the IP address and port of the master Streamer on
the CDS for communication with the OpenStream system. In addition, you can change the web service
port, and the headend ID used by OpenStream to communicate with the CDS.
The CORBA Services consist of the Naming and Notification Services that are used in the OpenStream
system. The Naming Service provides a standard service that clients can use to get object references
while maintaining location transparency. The Notification Service (also called the Event Service)
provides a framework for sending event messages by way of an event channel, which allows other
components to communicate with each other without knowing about each other.
The CORBA Event Channels are used to send event notifications, over the Notification Service
framework, about the state of the various components in the CDS to the OpenStream system.
The load query interval sets the time interval used for querying internal sources for ISA processes.
The Streaming Service settings are used to allow the OpenStream system and Streamers to communicate
information about stream objects with each other.
The LSCP Service is used by the CDS to provide the client with VCR-like control.
The Resource Service runs on each Streamer and is used to poll for orphan session objects. Each session
object is associated with a stream object, and the Resource Service makes sure each session object is in
service. If the session is orphaned, then an event destroy is sent to the Stream Event Channel.
To view the current Streamer ISA settings, choose Configure > Array Level > Streamer BMS. The ISA
settings currently configured for the stream services are displayed.
To configure the Streamer ISA settings, do the following:
Step 1 Choose Configure > Array Level > Streamer BMS. The Streamer ISA page is displayed (Figure 4-15).
