Change The Portal Application - LG PCS400R Pro:Centric Installation & Setup Manual

Change the Portal Application

This option enables you to change the portal application (Java or HTML), if necessary.
* Caution: This option will create a temporary system interruption and should be used only when necessary. After
you complete the procedure below, you must perform a number of additional steps in the appropriate Admin
Client (i.e., the Admin Client for the new application) in order for portal functionality to be initiated. Software fea-
ture licensing, output configuration, and portal configuration are not ported from one application to the other.
1 Log in to the PCS400R as described on page 22.
2 At the Command > prompt, type portal and press Enter.
The system prompts for confirmation that you wish to make a change, for example:
The system is configured to use the pcd (HTML) portal application.
Do you wish to change the portal appliction? [y/n]:
3 Either:
• Type y and press Enter to continue. The system will display the available applications, followed by a prompt for a selection:
Available portal applications are:
1) pca (Java)
2) pcd (HTML)
Select a new portal application [2]:
Continue with step 4.
• Type n and press Enter to return to the Main Menu without changing the portal application.
4 At the prompt to select a new portal application, either:
• Type 1 and press Enter to select the Java application.
• Type 2 and press Enter to select the HTML application.
* Note: Select the appropriate application based on the purchase order associated with this server. The software license specifies the Java or
HTML application, and the application type must be set accordingly.
Once you make your selection, the server will display confirmation and prompt you to reboot the system, for example:
Successfully set to pca (Java) portal application
You must reset the system now.
Are you sure you want to reset the system? [y/n]:
5 Either:
• Type y and press Enter to initiate an immediate reset of the PCS400R. The reset process may take several minutes, after which the system
resumes normal operation.
• Type n and press Enter to return to the Main Menu without resetting the system at the current time; however, note that you must eventually
reset the system in order to apply the new portal application configuration. See "Reset the System" on page 34 when you are ready to reset
the system.
* Note: If you intend to modify additional configuration settings during the current session, you may wait until all changes are complete
before you reset the system.
The remainder of the new portal application setup—configuration of feature set, output parameters, video playout settings, Pro:Centric Channel
Map, customized portal interactive menus, etc.—is performed in the appropriate Admin Client, as indicated at the beginning of this section. Refer
to either the Pro:Centric Server Admin Client User Guide (Java application) or the Pro:Centric Direct Admin Client User Guide (HTML
application), as applicable, for further information.
* Caution: When your Admin Client portal configuration activities are complete, you must reset the server to acti-
vate the new application configuration.
