About anti-virus and Windows updates

Note the Harmonic guidelines for anti-virus software and Windows updates on the SystemManager

platform.

The SystemManager platform is shipped with Windows Firewall turned off and with notifications for

Windows Firewall disabled. In most circumstances, Windows Firewall should not be turned back on. It

must not be turned on if the Harmonic MediaGrid Windows FSD product will be installed as it blocks many

services and can impact the normal operation and usage of SystemManager.

Windows Updates are also turned off and notifications are disabled by default as this function needs to be

managed.

As there is no anti-virus package included in the SystemManager platform software, notifications for “no

anti-virus package” are also disabled. Harmonic recommends that customers routinely schedule and

maintain current Windows Updates and install a basic anti-virus package to protect the system. Harmonic

does not recommend installing larger anti-virus Internet security.

About the FLEXlm License Server

Macrovision’s FLEXlm Manager is a Web-based software license management system that enables

organizations to centrally track and manage license usage across an organization

FLEXlm allows the SystemManager application to acquire licenses to operate. It works by handing out

licenses found in the license folder to each application or on a first-come-first-served basis. After all

licenses are handed out, no more licenses are issued until an application or functionality is shut down and

the license returned.

The FLEXlm License Server is factory-installed on the NSM-2017 and NSM-2017K. It is also installed

as part of the SystemManager application installation for NSM-2017SW software-only configurations.

License Files with a “.omlic” extension are emailed to customers by Harmonic on receipt of orders for

applications and functionality managed by the License Server.

• Two licenses are required for a Primary and Secondary SystemManager setup; one for each

SystemManager.

• Harmonic provides different types of License Files depending on the application or functionality:

◦Demo: Available for free and allows you to use a particular MediaTool for 7 days. (The License File

has a “-d” in its name.) Provided only for MediaTools.

◦Normal: Granted by purchasing an application or functionality. The license is “floating” and allows

the application or functionality to be used on any network attached PC. (The License File has a “-n”

in its name.) Provided for all licensed applications and functionality.

◦Upgrade: Allows you to upgrade from an older version of an application or functionality to a

newer version. (The License File has a “-u” in its name.) Provided for all licensed applications and

functionality.

• Installing a license on the SystemManager Platform does not grant support for running the

application on the Platform itself. The only applications which should be installed on the NSM-2017

SystemManager Platform are:

◦ ClipTool (not ClipTool Pro)

◦ Windows FSD

◦ ContentManager (provided a license is available)

17 6.9 Installation Guide

Chapter 2: SystemManager platform reference

• Further information, including troubleshooting suggestions for FLEXlm can be found in the FLEXlm

user manual available in the FLEXlm Start menu. For more information on the operation of the FLEXlm

License Server, visit: http://www.macrovision.com.

About the web browser

The User Interface portion of SystemManager consists of a set of dynamic HTML pages which display in

a web browser running on the SystemManager Platform, client PC, or on another system in the network.

The SystemManager is qualified for use with the Internet Explorer versions included with the Windows

operating systems listed in "SystemManager NSM-2017SW (software only) system requirements".

NOTE: With other web browsers, most of SystemManager's features are available and

usable, though some drawing and alignment issues may occur. SystemManager's UI is

not supported with web browsers that do not support compatible standards for DOM, Java

script, and HTML.

The User Interface is displayed in a web browser that runs on any PC connected to the SystemManager

via TCP/IP, usually over Ethernet. The web browser may also be run directly on the SystemManager.

Refer to www.microsoft.com for installation information, user documentation, and technical support.

Network configuration guidelines

Review the network guidelines before adding a SystemManager platform or client PC to a network.

Before adding a SystemManager Platform or client PC to a network, ensure network switches are in

place, if needed.

IMPORTANT: For Harmonic MediaGrid systems: To avoid IP address conflicts, do not

connect or use SystemManager, or any third-party devices, within the Harmonic MediaGrid

subnets until after theHarmonic MediaGrid Configuration Assistant has completed.

Port usage

The SystemManager Platform is shipped with both network ports enabled as follows:

Port 1 = DHCP server (vDHCP) with a static IP address.

Port 2 = DHCP client.

NOTE: If Port 2 is used, it should be connected to a different IP network than that

connected to Port 1.

Before using vDHCP, configure a static IP address for the SystemManager Platform or client PC. In a

Harmonic MediaGrid system, ensure that dual DHCP servers are working cooperatively so address

conflicts are avoided. Refer to the Harmonic MediaGrid Installation Guide for detailed instructions on

DHCP configuration.

Note the following guidelines for port usage:

• For a Spectrum-only system, use the vDHCP port (Port 1) to connect to an IP network. For a

MediaDeck 7000, Harmonic recommends the use of the vDHCP service where the first port (NIC) on

the SystemManager PC (platform or customer-supplied PC) has a static IP address.

Chapter 3: Installing the SystemManager platform

• For a Harmonic MediaGrid-only network, configure the first port to be a DHCP client. Disable vDHCP

and then connect Port 1 and Port 2 respectively to the switches for the A and B networks of a

Harmonic MediaGrid.

• For a Harmonic MediaGrid and Spectrum network, use the vDHCP port (Port 1) to connect to an IP

network. Add the Harmonic MediaGrid to the SystemManager managing the Spectrum network by

connecting to a ContentDirector in theHarmonic MediaGrid system. Refer to “Connecting a Device

from a Different IP Network” in the SystemManager User Guide for instructions.

Verify network connectivity of the SystemManager by pinging the gateway IP address.

Configuration options

Note the following options for network configuration:

• Configure the NTP service and modify vDHCP's options to pass the time service IP address on to

DHCP clients.

• If not in a Windows domain, you can set the time accurately, or configure NTP to get its time reference

from some other trusted time source. In a Windows domain, the Domain Controller can provide this

time source.

• In a Harmonic MediaGrid network, the time reference of the ContentDirectors should come from the

SystemManager, or it should come from the same place where the SystemManager gets its time

reference.

• If desired, add the SystemManager to a Windows Domain.

• If desired, configure Windows Remote Desktop. Follow the instructions on the Microsoft website.

• For remote access by Technical Support, configure pcAnywhere. Refer to the Symantec website for

configuration information.

Unpacking and inspecting the SystemManager platform

When you receive your SystemManager platform components, inspect the shipping cartons for signs of

physical damage.

Contact your local Harmonic representative and the shipper immediately if you suspect any damage has

occurred during shipping. Using the packing list, check the contents of each box to be sure that all parts

are included. If any items are missing, contact your local Harmonic representative immediately.

NOTE: When inspecting the SystemManager platform, note the service number on the

service tag label located on the top of the unit or back of the units for newer models. You

will need this number to access specific product information on the Dell web site.

Installation prerequisites

Review the prerequisites before installing the SystemManager platform.

Environmental

The SystemManager platform is designed to operate in normal “control room” conditions.

Power

Consult the Dell documentation CD which ships with the platform for power requirements.
