4.1 Scheduler and QuickStart Modes
The users can perform backup of record trains in XStream using two different modes: the
Scheduler mode or the QuickStart mode. The users activate these modes by clicking
the buttons at the top of the XStream main window:
Both modes cannot be active nor work at the same time, even on different EVS video
servers.
4.1.1 Scheduler Mode
The Scheduler mode allows the user to schedule the following backup jobs on one or
several EVS video servers at a time:
• backup of record train(s) scheduled to start at a given time before the nowline (i.e. the
orange vertical line symbolizing the current position in the time grid).
• backup of record train(s) scheduled to start at a given time after the nowline.
• backup of record train(s) scheduled to start straight away, i.e. from the nowline
onwards.
• backup of record train(s) scheduled to start at an unknown time (pending job)
In all cases, the duration for the backup can be specified.
For more information, refer to the section ‘Creating and Editing Jobs in Scheduler Mode’,
on page 143.
4.1.2 QuickStart Mode
The QuickStart mode allows the user to launch a backup of one or several record train(s)
straight away, i.e. from the nowline onwards. The backup is launched with endless
duration.
For more information, refer to section ‘Creating Jobs in QuickStart Mode’, on page 149.
