Crispin’s Loading Dock software is used to ingest file based media into the Node, and serves as nearline storage for the Node. Crispin and ProTrack will both make requests to Loading Dock for files to be delivered to the Harmonic devices.
Log-in Credentials
The default log-in for loading dock is user ‘ldadmin’ with a password of ‘crispin’.
Media Request Tab
The media request tab will show a history of file transfers of new material, initiated by Dub Requests from ProTrack, purge requests from ProTrack, and pull requests to deliver files to the Harmonic Devices. In progress tasks can be tracked from this page.
The results displayed can be adjusted by choosing between ‘all’, ‘in progress’, or ‘error’ from the ‘Show’ dropdown in the middle of the menu bar.
You can also search through the requests by clicking on the plus sign on the right hand side of the bar.
You can search for an item based on submission date, material id, the service that requested it, or the completion status.
To see more details about an event, click the select bubble in the left hand column, and then click the details button at the top in the Action section. You can also restart an event by selecting it and then clicking the retry button.
