This section contains information on the following procedures:

• To Install the Transfer and Monitor Services

• To View the Mediaftp and Fsmon Parameters

• To Stop/Start the Transfer and Monitor Services

• To Uninstall the Transfer and Monitor Services

To Install the Transfer and Monitor Services

1. Download the mediaftp-x_y-z.exe and ardsfmon.zip files from the Viz One

installation directory:

• \<viz_one -hostname>\software

2. Create a local installation directory for the Mediaftp and Fsmon files:

• C:\Program Files\vizrt\Common\VizOne_Services\mediaftp

• C:\Program Files\vizrt\Common\VizOne_Services\Fsmon

Note: Detailed path is for 32bit Windows. For 64bit Windows: C:\Program

Files (x86)\vizrt\Common\VizOne_Services\ ...

3. Copy the mediaftp-x_y-z.exe to the mediaftp folder.

4. Extract the ardsfmon.zip to the fsmon folder.

5. Create two folders to store each of the two service’s log files.

Note: It is not recommended to store log files alongside the exe files. In the

two install commands two new folders (mediaftp and fsmon) first have to be

created under %Temp%\Vizrt\.

6. Open a Command Prompt Window.

7. Change to the Mediaftp or Fsmon local installation directory.

8. Run the these two commands to install the Transfer and Monitor Services:

mediaftp-x_y-z.exe --install -a --root=V:\ --log=%Temp%\vizrt

\mediaftp --bandwidth=300000

fsmon.exe --install --mqserver=<VizOne-hostname> --

hostname=<vizengine-hostname> --root=V:\ --log=%Temp%\vizrt\fsmon --

debug

IMPORTANT! In the Mediaftp installation the -a flag automatically installs the

Transfer service with the User and password as: vtrsync/vtrsync. If the -a flag is

deleted the service will use the logged in Windows User (make sure the User has

read and write access to the V:\ drive). Make sure the User and password to

access ftp/Mediaftp in Viz One and the Mediaftp installation are the same.

Note: The root install directory must be the same as the Viz Clip root directory.
