This section describes how to configure Media Server to send records to another Media Server.
To send records to another Media Server
Create a new configuration to send to Media Server with the process
action, or open an existing configuration that you want to modify.
In the [Session]
section, add a new task by setting the EngineN
parameter. You can give the task any name, for example:
[Session] Engine0=Ingest Engine1=... Engine2=RemoteAnalysis
Create a new configuration section by typing the task name inside square brackets. Then, set the following parameters:
Type
|
The analysis engine to use. Set this parameter to RemoteAnalysis . |
Host
|
The host name or IP address of the Media Server to send records to. |
Port
|
The ACI port of the Media Server to send records to. |
ConfigName
|
The name of the configuration file that the downstream Media Server must use to ingest and analyze the records (this file must be present in the folder specified by the ConfigDirectory configuration parameter on the downstream Media Server). |
Input
|
The name of the track to send to the remote Media Server for remote analysis. You can provide an alias to simplify the track name when you configure the other Media Server. To do this specify the track name as
NOTE: You cannot send audio tracks to a downstream Media Server. |
Output
|
A comma-separated list of tracks, generated by the remote Media Server, to output from the remote analysis task. These tracks are then available for further processing on this Media Server.
Specify the track names as
|
For example:
[RemoteAnalysis] Type=RemoteAnalysis Host=gpu-mediaserver Port=14000 ConfigName=RemoteFaceRecognition Input=DetectedFaces:Crop.Output // where "Crop" is a transform task to crop images of // detected faces from the face detection ResultWithSource track Output=RecognizedFaces:FaceRecognition.Result // makes results available to subsequent tasks // as RemoteAnalysis.RecognizedFaces
Save and close the configuration file. Micro Focus recommends that you save your configuration files in the location specified by the ConfigDirectory
parameter.
