License Agreement and Limited Warranty

1. AGREEMENT: This is a legal agreement ("Agreement") between you ("you" or "your") and Harmonic, or its appropriate local affiliate ("Harmonic", "we",

"us" or "our"). Use of our product(s) and any updates thereto purchased or validly obtained by you (the "Products"), and/or the Software (as defined below)

(collectively, the "System"), constitutes your acceptance of this Agreement. "Use" includes opening or breaking the seal on the packet containing this

Agreement, installing or downloading the Software as defined below or using the Software preloaded or embedded in your System. As used herein, the term

"Software" means the Harmonic owned software and/or firmware used in or with the Products and embedded into, provided with or loaded onto the

Products in object code format, but does not include, and this Agreement does not address, any third-party or free or open source software separately

licensed to you ("Third Party Software"). If you do not agree to this Agreement, you shall promptly return the System with a dated receipt to the seller for a

full refund.

2. LICENSE: Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including payment), we hereby grant you a nonexclusive, nontransferable license to use

the object code version of the Software embedded into, provided solely for use with or loaded onto the Product, and the accompanying documentation

("Documentation") for your internal business purposes. The Software and any authorized copies are owned by us or our suppliers, and are protected by law,

including without limitation the copyright laws and treaties of the U.S.A. and other countries. Evaluation versions of the Software may be subject to a time-

limited license key.

3. RESTRICTIONS: You (and your employees and contractors) shall not attempt to reverse engineer, disassemble, modify, translate, create derivative works

of, rent, lease (including use on a timesharing, applications service provider, service bureau or similar basis), loan, distribute, sublicense or otherwise transfer

the System, in whole or part except to the extent otherwise permitted by law. The Software may be operated on a network only if and as permitted by its

Documentation. You may make one (1) back up copy of the object code of the Software for archival purposes only. Evaluation Software will be run in a lab,

nonproductive environment. Results of any benchmark or other performance tests may not be disclosed to any third party without our prior written consent.

Title to and ownership of the Software and Documentation, and all copyright, patent, trade secret, trademark, and other intellectual property rights in the

System, shall remain our or our licensors' property. You shall not remove or alter any copyright or other proprietary rights notice on the System. We reserve

all rights not expressly granted.

4. LIMITED WARRANTY: (a) Limited Warranty. We warrant to you that, commencing on your receipt of a Product and terminating 1 year thereafter, the System

will perform substantially in accordance with its then-current appropriate Documentation. The Product (including replacements) may consist of new, used or

previously-installed components. (b) Remedies. If the System fails to comply with such warranty during such period, as your sole remedy, you must return

the same in compliance with our product return policy, and we shall, at our option, repair or replace the System, provide a workaround, or refund the fees you

paid. Replacement Systems are warranted for the original System's remaining warranty period. (c) Exclusions. EVALUATION SOFTWWARE IS LICENSED ON

AS-IS BASIS AND SUBJECT TO 4(d). We will have no obligation under this limited warranty due to: (i) negligence, misuse or abuse of the System, such as

unusual physical or electrical stress, misuse or accidents; (ii) use of the System other than in accordance with the Documentation; (iii) modifications,

alterations or repairs to the System made by a party other than us or our representative; (iv) the combination, operation or use of the System with equipment,

devices, software or data not supplied by us; (v) any third party hardware or Third Party Software, whether or not provided by us; (vi) any failure other than by

us to comply with handling, operating, environmental, storage or maintenance requirements for the System in the Documentation, including, without

limitation, temperature or humidity ranges. (d) Disclaimers. We are not responsible for your software, firmware, information, or data contained in, stored on,

or integrated with any Product returned to us for repair or replacement. SUCH LIMITED WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF, AND WE SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIM, ANY

AND ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF

SATISFACTORY QUALITY, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE

SYSTEM WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS OR BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE. NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN,

OBTAINED FROM US OR ELSEWHERE, WILL CREATE ANY WARRANTY NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THIS AGREEMENT. Some jurisdictions do not allow the

exclusion of implied warranties or limitations on how long an implied warranty may last, so such exclusions may not apply to you. In that event, such implied

warranties or limitations are limited to 60 days from the date you purchased the System or the shortest period permitted by applicable law, if longer. This

warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may have other rights which vary from state to state or country to country.

5. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY: WE AND OUR AFFILIATES, SUPPLIERS, LICENSORS, OR SALES CHANNELS ("REPRESENTATIVES") SHALL NOT BE LIABLE TO

YOU FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOST

REVENUES, PROFITS OR SAVINGS, OR THE COST OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS, HOWEVER CAUSED, UNDER CONTRACT, TORT, BREACH OF WARRANTY,

NEGLIGENCE, OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF WE WERE ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSS OR DAMAGES. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER

PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT, WE AND OUR REPRESENTATIVES' TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT

OR THE SYSTEM SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE TOTAL PAYMENTS TO US UNDER THIS AGREEMENT FOR THE SYSTEM. THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS

SHALL NOT APPLY TO DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY TO PERSONS OR TANGIBLE PROPERTY IN ANY JURISDICTION WHERE APPLICABLE LAW

PROHIBITS SUCH LIMITATION. YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR BACKING UP YOUR DATA AND FILES, AND HEREBY RELEASE US AND OUR

REPRESENTATIVES FROM ANY LIABILITY OR DAMAGES DUE TO THE LOSS OF ANY SUCH DATA OR FILES. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE

EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO SUCH EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

6. CONFIDENTIALITY: Information in the System and the associated media, as well as the structure, organization and code of the Software, are proprietary to

us and contain valuable trade secrets developed or acquired at great expense to us or our suppliers. You shall not disclose to others or utilize any such

information except as expressly provided herein, except for information (i) lawfully received by the user from a third party which is not subject to

confidentiality obligations; (ii) generally available to the public without breach of this Agreement; (iii) lawfully known to the user prior to its receipt of the

System; or (iv) required by law to be disclosed.

7. SUPPORT: Updates, upgrades, fixes, maintenance or support for the System (an "Upgrade") after the limited warranty period may be available at separate

terms and fees from us. Any Upgrades shall be subject to this Agreement, except for additional or inconsistent terms we specify. Upgrades do not extend the

limited warranty period.

8. TERM; TERMINATION: The term of this Agreement shall continue unless terminated in accordance with this Section. We may terminate this Agreement at

any time upon default by you of the license provisions of this Agreement, or any other material default by you of this Agreement not cured with thirty (30)

days after written notice thereof. You may terminate this Agreement any time by terminating use of the System. Except for the first sentence of Section 2

("License") and for Section 4(a) ("Limited Warranty"), all provisions of this Agreement shall survive termination of this Agreement. Upon any such termination,

you shall certify in writing such termination and non-use to us.

9. EXPORT CONTROL: You agree that the Products and Software will not be shipped, transferred, or exported into any country or used in any manner

prohibited by the United States Export Administration Act or any other export laws, restrictions, or regulations (the "Export Laws"). You will indemnify, defend

and hold us harmless from any and all claims arising therefrom or relating thereto. In addition, if the Products or Software are identified as export controlled

items under the Export Laws, you represent and warrant that you are not a citizen, or otherwise located within, an embargoed nation (including without

limitation Iran, Iraq, Syria, Sudan, Libya, Cuba, North Korea, and Serbia) and that you are not otherwise prohibited under the Export Laws from receiving the

Software. All rights to the Products and Software are granted on condition that such rights are forfeited if you fail to comply with the terms of this Agreement.

10. U.S. GOVERNMENT RIGHTS: The Software and the documentation which accompanies the Software are "Commercial Items," as that term is defined at

48 C.F.R. §2.101, consisting of "Commercial Computer Software" and "Commercial Computer Software Documentation," as such terms are used in 48 C.F.R.

§12.212 or 48 C.F.R. §227.7202, as applicable. Consistent with 48 C.F.R. §12.212 or 48 C.F.R. §§227.7202-1 through 227.7202-4, as applicable, the

Commercial Computer Software and Commercial Computer Software Documentation are being licensed to U.S. Government as end users (a) only as

Commercial Items and (b) with only those rights as are granted to all other end users pursuant to the terms and conditions herein. Harmonic, 4300 North

First Street, San Jose, CA 95134 U.S.A.

11. GENERAL: You shall not assign, delegate or sublicense your rights or obligations under this Agreement, by operation of law or otherwise, without our

prior written consent, and any attempt without such consent shall be void. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement binds and benefits permitted

successors and assigns. This Agreement is governed by California law, without regard to its conflicts of law principles. The U.N. Convention on Contracts for

the International Sale of Goods is disclaimed. If any claim arises out of this Agreement, the parties hereby submit to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of

the federal and state courts located in Santa Clara County, California. In addition to any other rights or remedies, we shall be entitled to injunctive and other

equitable relief, without posting bond or other security, to prevent any material breach of this Agreement. We may change the terms, conditions and pricing

relating to the future licensing of our Systems and other intellectual property rights, including this Agreement, from time to time. No waiver will be implied

from conduct or failure to enforce rights nor effective unless in a writing signed on behalf of the party against whom the waiver is asserted. If any part of this

Agreement is found unenforceable, the remaining parts will be enforced to the maximum extent permitted. There are no third-party beneficiaries to this

Agreement. We are not bound by additional and/or conflicting provisions in any order, acceptance, or other correspondence unless we expressly agree in

writing. This Agreement is the complete and exclusive statement of agreement between the parties as to its subject matter and supersedes all proposals or

prior agreements, verbal or written, advertising, representations or communications concerning the System.

Every reasonable attempt has been made to comply with all licensing requirements for all components used in the system. Any oversight is unintentional and

will be remedied if brought to the attention of Harmonic at [email protected].

Introduction

Technical Support

Once you are able to reproduce the issue, Technical Support may ask you to provide log files

from the client computers or the ContentBridge. The following instructions describe how to turn

on logging on a client system.

IMPORTANT: Do not perform the following procedures unless directed by Technical Support.

To enable logging for a Windows client:

1. Add two registry parameters to the OmRdr registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\OmRdr\Parameters

DWORD “debug” with value 1

DWORD “LogToFile” with value 1

2. For debug to take effect, make sure the client is mounted to the Harmonic MediaGrid system.

3. For LogToFile to take effect, run the “taillog” executable and redirect the output to a file. From

the Start menu, click Run, and paste the location of tailog.exe and desired location of the log

file into the Open field, as shown in this example: “C:\Program Files\Omneon\Omneon

MediaGrid\taillog.exe” > c:\clxxxxxx-1.log

In this example, the log file will be created at the c:\ directory.

4. Reproduce the issue, and then collect all log files from taillog and the omxxx.log from the

WinFSD installed directory.

5. Once you have collected the log files make sure to delete the LogToFile parameter from the

registry, otherwise it will have a negative impact on performance.

To enable logging for a Macintosh client:

1. Run the following command to ensure that the debug level is set to default:

sudo sysctl –w debug.omfs=3

2. Reproduce problem.

3. Collect the following log files: /var/log/system.log and /var/log/kernel.log.

To collect log messages for a Linux client:

Collect /var/log/messages.

Harmonic may also wish to collect the current configured Linux FSD parameters. Access these by

entering the following command:

cat /proc/sys/omfs*

To collect log messages for the ContentBridge:

Locate the log file at:/var/log/omneon/remote/<IP address of ContentBridge>.

What was the time of the failure?

For information on the time of failure, navigate to the View Alarms page in SystemManager. To

open the View Alarms page, click the Diagnostics tab, and then click the View Alarms icon in the

left-hand column.

For failures with the Harmonic MediaGrid cluster:

What is the name of the device that experienced the failure?

From SystemManager, click the Servers & Switches icon in the left-hand column to access the

Servers & Switches page. Device names are listed in the Name column.

Please provide an error message and/or a description of the symptom

Introduction

Technical Support

Is this failure affecting clients or other systems?

Please provide the appropriate log file or remote access to the device

The Harmonic MediaGrid provides logs files for all of the core services. Technical support may

wish to view one of these logs to determine the root cause of the problem. The following three

log files are used most often when troubleshooting. These files are located on the
