Default configuration settings for managed media servers
You can change the thresholds that trigger the communication statuses when managed media servers become unresponsive. You can also set how often the managed media server sends active job status updates to the central administration server. The frequency affects the network traffic.
See Setting communication thresholds and active job status updates for CASO .

Description

|
Communication Stalled (no more jobs are queued to the managed media server) |
Indicates the amount of time before the managed media server’s status changes to Communication Stalled if the managed media server is unresponsive.
The central administration server does not delegate jobs to the managed media server when it has a status of Communication Stalled. Job delegation resumes if the managed media server returns to an Enabled status before the threshold is exceeded.
The default threshold is five minutes.
|
|
No Communication (jobs are recovered from the managed media server) |
Indicates the amount of time before the managed media server’s status changes from Communication Stalled to No Communication.
When the status of the managed media server changes from Communication Stalled to No Communication, the central administration server marks the active jobs on the managed media server as Failed. The custom error-handling rule Recovered Jobs is applied to any job that is active when the No Communication status appears.
The default threshold is 15 minutes.

Send active job status updates in seconds to the central administration server |
Sends a job status update to the central administration server. You can adjust the number of seconds that a managed media server waits between sending job status updates to the central administration server. To preserve network bandwidth when many jobs are running, increase the amount of time between job update statuses. Decrease the amount of time if you want to send more updates.
The default is 10 seconds, which provides near real-time monitoring. This setting is recommended only for fast network connections.
For low-bandwidth network connections, consider a setting of 120 seconds. This frequency allows updates to be displayed for a medium-sized job while still significantly decreasing the network traffic caused by job status updates.
If you uncheck the check box, job status updates are not sent. Job progress is not displayed on the central administration server. When the job is complete, the Job History view on the central administration server is updated.
