HOW TO: EDIT IN PLACE ON WINDOWS CLIENT

Hi everybody,

I work in TIBA (broadcaster company), we use FCS so much and I have a problem, actually i have running edit in place on XSAN for MAC clients, but i cant work of the same way on windows.
We have XSAN and fiber channels working.

I configure the device but it doesn´t work.

Somebody, help me please. My email is ebustamante@tiba.com

Kind regards
Emiliano

Are you using StorNext FX to add the Windows clients to your Xsan? If so, then all you have to do is add the Windows Edit-in-place URI to each EIP device in the Devices section of the Java client Admin GUI (not the System Preferences pane). Once you've done that, EIP will work for the Windows clients as well. Here are the instructions for entering the correct URI syntax.

If you are not using StorNext FX for your Windows clients, please give us more detail on how your system is set up.

Hi,

No iam not using stornext for the windows clients.

The mac and windows clients running on ethernet. The the mac clients have mapped the xsan volumes using AFP or SMB protocol and the edit in place works ok.
The windows clients have mapped the xsan volumes through SMB but the edit un place doesnt work, the files are cached and doesn´t run as edit in place.

Note: sorry by my english.

kind regard.

Have you tried adding the Windows EIP URI to your devices? It should still work if you have a share running. The documentation I linked to still applies.
