Problems with Windows Media Server and Remote Storage |
|
|
Hi,
I am running a W2003 Server EEd, Wmservices installed and tuned as MS
says at web. The server gets all the VOD files from a remote storage ( SAN ),
so i implemented the ServerNamespace.xml changes as Microsoft says. the line
that i added to the xml is this one:
<node name="Only File Read Share" opcode="create" type="int32"
value="0x1" />
so it seems like this now:
<node name="WMS File Data Source" opcode="create" >
<node name="CLSID" opcode="create" type="string"
value="{8553DFDD-4771-11D2-9EFF-006097D2D7CF}" />
<node name="Enabled" opcode="create" type="boolean" value="true" />
<node name="Properties" opcode="create" >
<node name="WMSSystemPlugin" opcode="create" type="int32"
value="0x1" />
<node name="WMSCriticalSystemPlugin" opcode="create" type="int32"
value="0x1" />
<node name="URL Prefix" opcode="create" type="string"
value="file://" />
<node name="URL Suffix" opcode="create" type="string" value="" />
<node name="Use File Buffering" opcode="create" type="int32"
value="0x1" />
<node name="Only File Read Share" opcode="create" type="int32"
value="0x1" />
</node> <!-- Properties -->
I have been doing hundreds of load tests in my machine trough a dedicated
full duplex gigabit network, and file caching never worked, the wmserver
still requests the same file 300 times if there is 300 players requesting for
it, so the network connection between server and SAN is loaded with heavy
traffic, when , as Microsoft says, it should not happend afther the change is
maded and the server is restarted.
Please, any help would be greatly appreciated. By the way, the
publishing point content is located in a UNC like this:
\\192.168.0.10\servercontent.
Thanks in advance
