Starter Server Questions

[teperjesi]

I have some questions aboute the 3417 Starter Server

1. When I use a 3417 and want to upgrade later my IP/TV system whit another IP/TV Servers (Archive Server, Broadcast Server etc..), could I manage the new devices whit my existing 3417?

2. In which way can I Upgrade the disk size int the 3417? Or is it impossible, and have to buy a Archive Server?

3. Which features lack in 3417, they exist in the IP/TV Servers?

Thanks!

1.) Yes, the existing 3417 content manager can manage additional IPTV archive or broadcast servers. No need to purchase an additional content manager - unless you want one for redundancy purposes.

2.) The 3417 is a turn key system from Cisco. Changing the h/w configuration will invalidate any support contracts and is not recommended.

3.) The 3417 has a full load content manager and IPTV server loaded. They are no missing features or capabilities from a s/w perspective. There are h/w differences between the 3417 and other servers.
