1 Introduction 1.1 Document Purpose and Scope This document describes the operations of the Object Transfer Utility (OTU) for Oracle DIVArchive 7.5. Installation, Administration and Operations personnel should use this guide to follow all of the necessary steps to provide full functionality of the DIVArchive Object Transfer Utility component. See A1 DIVArchive Options and Licensing for DIVArchive licensing information. 1.2 Document Conventions The following conventions are used with respect to text: Normal Standard Text. Italic Used to emphasize a term or variable. Bold Used to emphasize critical information. 6.1 Refers to a section or sub-section in the document. Courier New Used for system screen output and system commands. The following conventions are used with respect to figures and drawings: Red outlined boxes pointing to specific areas in a figure indicate procedural steps, or point out specific parameters being discussed in the section text. Red outlined boxes that surround specific areas in a figure indicate specific areas of the figure being discussed in the section text. 1.3 System Overview Oracle DIVArchive 7.5 supports system installations in the Oracle Linux 7 x86_64 and later environment. All batch files (.bat) have corresponding shell scripts (.sh) in Linux. You must substitute Windows paths with Linux paths when operating on Linux. For example, the Windows path: C:\DIVA\Program will be /home/diva/diva/program when running under Linux. Note: Linux commands, paths and file names are case-sensitive. There are some enhancements and limitations running in the Linux environment: Archive and Restore of empty files and folders are now supported. o Empty files and folders are supported by AXF only. When LEGACY format is in use, DIVArchive will report an error if an empty file or folder is discovered during the transfer. 1

Linux-based Actors do not support UNC paths for CIFS sources and destinations. Oracle only supports Linux-based FTP servers on DIVArchive systems running in the Linux environment, not FileZilla and IIS FTP servers. Empty files are now displayed in the Elements list on the Instances tab in the Object Properties dialog box. o Folders are not displayed in the Elements list because they are only metadata and have no physical presence on the tape. The Control GUI now displays the fully qualified path to a file, and the fully qualified path to an empty folder in the components list in the Properties tab of the Object Properties dialog box. Refer to the Oracle DIVArchive 7.5 Release Notes in the Oracle DIVArchive 7.5 Core documentation library for a full list of enhancements and limitations. The Object Transfer Utility (OTU) is an alternate method of initiating Archive (FTP to DIVArchive) and Restore (DIVArchive to FTP) requests using the Control GUI. It provides a simple, visual means of selecting files or objects to archive or restore. This utility is only available when logged into the Control GUI as an Administrator. The OTU consists primarily of two panels: One exhibiting a tree representation of the folders and files/objects in the user s defined Source/Destination locations. One presenting a similar tree representation of objects (sorted by Category Names and Object Names) currently in the archive. OTU filters enable creation of various views with selected subsets of objects. You are able to select one or more files/objects and drag-and-drop them from one window to the other; initiating an Archive or Restore operation. This function does not actually transfer files or objects, but provides an easy, graphical way to select files and objects for transfer and automatically fill in the Archive or Restore Request dialog box. 2

2 Operations 2.1 Accessing OTU The OTU is only available as an option to users logged in to the DIVArchive Control GUI with Administrator privileges. If logged in as an Administrator, the user will see the OTU option under the Tools menu in the far left panel of the Control GUI. Clicking on this option will bring up the OTU screen in the area to the right of this panel. Figure 1: OTU Panel in the DIVArchive Control GUI This panel exhibits a tree representation of the folders and files/objects in the user s defined Source/Destination locations. This panel presents a tree representation of the objects in the archive. This panel shows a summary view of the Current Requests status. As shown in the previous figure, the OTU screen consists of two panels side by side. Below them is a summary view of the Current Requests Status Panel that is also displayed when the Oracle DIVArchive Manager is selected. See A1 DIVArchive Options and Licensing for DIVArchive Manager licensing information. The left OTU panel displays the client s folder and file structure or object list. This is referred to as the Source/Destination Panel. The right-hand OTU panel is a folder-based view of the contents of the archive. This is referred to as the DIVA Objects Panel. 3

2.2 Archive Operations To initiate archiving of files, first select the Source Destination View tab on the Source Destination panel. Figure 2: Select the Source Destination View Tab Select the Source Destination View Tab to view the folders and files/objects in the Source/Destination Panel. These are the archived objects. The folder icon represents a DIVArchive Category and the file icons represent Object Names stored under each DIVArchive Category. Immediately below the tabs there are several controls: 1. Use the list for selecting one of the pre-defined source locations. Click on the down-arrow and select the desired source from the list. The selected Source Name will be displayed in the box. a. Source selections can only be changed if the current view is closed. If the Source Selection box is disabled (greyed out), the current view is connected and the location in the Source Selection box will not be available for changing. Click the Disconnect button and then proceed as above. Figure 3: Source Selection Box Greyed Out Unable to Select New Source 4

Figure 4: Use the Pull-down Box to Select a Source 1. Click the Connect button to connect to the selected Source. 2. Use the Source Selection pull-down box to select the Source to view. 2. Hovering over the selected Source Name (after selecting it from the pull-down box) will yield a dialog box showing the selected Source Server information as shown in the figure below. 5

Figure 5: Informational Box Showing Selected Source Server Hovering the mouse pointer over the selected Source Server results in the appearance of this box showing the selected Source Server information. 3. Open the selected Source by clicking on the Connect button to the right of the Source Selection Box. The source location s folder hierarchy will now be displayed and each folder can be expanded by clicking on the icon to the left of the folder or by double-clicking on the folder itself. a. At any time while the view is open, you can update the view to refresh the list of files in the source location using the Refresh button. Figure 6: Updating the Current View The Source/Destination is now connected and operations may continue as outlined in the following subsections. 6

2.2.1 Archiving Files To archive files, highlight the file or files desired. The highlighting works the same way as in Windows folders: Left-click the mouse cursor on a single file to select it. Additional files may be selected by holding down the CTRL key and leftclicking on each additional file. A range of files may be selected by left-clicking on the first file in the range to highlight and then holding down the Shift key and left-clicking on the last file in the range. These two files and all files between them on the display will be highlighted. o Multiple files can only be selected if they are in the same folder. To display a view of categories and objects in the archive, there are several filters available on the top of the DIVA Objects Panel. Figure 7: DIVArchive Categories and Objects Filter Options The Category Filter can be used to limit the display. To see all Categories use the global wild card (*). o It is possible to specify a single Category by name and use a truncated name to view a subset. An example of a truncated name would be My*; which would only include Categories that begin with My. The ending of the Category Name does not matter in this case because of the use of the wild card (*), which indicates that anything after My will match the filter as long as the Category Name starts with My. o Wild cards may only be used as a trailing asterisk (*) for truncation. The Object Filter works the same as the Category Filter, allowing for designation of all Objects, or a subset of Object Names. The Time/Date Range Filter is available for specifying a Time/Date range with both beginning and ending dates being specified as a year, month, day, hour, and minute. o The Enable Checkbox is used to turn the Time/Date Filter on or off. To turn the filter on, click the checkbox; to turn the filter off, uncheck the box. 7

After making any changes to any of the filter fields, clicking the Refresh button refreshes the DIVA Objects Panel view. 1. To start the archiving procedure, drag-and-drop the selected file (or files) from the Source Destination Panel to the desired folder (representing a DIVArchive Category) in the DIVA Objects Panel on the right. a. To drag-and-drop, put the mouse cursor in the Source Destination Panel, press and hold either mouse button, and move the mouse cursor over the desired archive folder in the DIVA Objects Panel. Release the button to complete the action. This action will cause the standard Send Archive Request dialog box to be displayed with the Source Files Path Root, Category, and the name of the selected file or list of files filled in. Other fields will either be blank or set to their defaults. Refer to the figure below. Note: If a directory is selected in the Source Destination panel and you drag-anddrop, the system will assume that you want to move all files in that directory and a global wildcard will be inserted into the Files list in the Send Archive Request dialog box. Figure 8: Standard Send Archive Request Window 8

The only field you must fill in is the Media field. All other default fields can be modified and blank fields can be filled in if desired, but it is not necessary for archiving of the selected file(s). 2. Click the Send button to initiate the actual file transfer and archiving. The Archive Request can be cancelled at any time before clicking the Send button by clicking the Cancel button. The form can also be reset to a blank form by clicking the Reset button and then filling it out manually. These buttons can be seen in the figure below. Figure 9: Send Archive Request Window 3. Once the Submit button is clicked, the results will show in the bottom OTU Request Panel as seen in the figure below. 9

Figure 10: Control GUI Showing Request Results from Archive Request After clicking the Submit button, the result of the Archive Request will be shown in the bottom OTU Request Panel. 4. To exit the OTU screen and return to other DIVArchive functionality, click the desired option in the tree listing in the far left panel. The Control GUI may also be closed at this point if desired. 2.2.2 Filtering Configuration Archiving an object involves selecting a single object that will automatically include all of the associated source files. 1. After selecting and opening the source location from the Source Destination Panel, click on the Clips View tab at the top of the display window. Use the pulldown box to select the desired Video Server Filter. Figure 11: Clips View Tab Video Server Filter 2. After switching to the Clips View, first select the desired Video Server by clicking the down-arrow of the first list box on the left (Filter As:) to select the desired Video Server. 10

3. Navigate down the source folder tree until the names of the objects are listed in the display box panel. Each level is navigated by clicking on the In: list box s down-arrow. All immediate child folders will be listed in the drop-down box and you can select one. Repeat the procedure to go another level down. a. To return to a higher folder level, click the Up button. Figure 12: Clips View Tab Additional Options Use the pull-down box to select the desired tree level. Use the Up button to return to a higher level in the tree. Use the Refresh button to update the displayed information. Object Names will be displayed without any file extensions. Each one will include all of the files that are components of that object when you archive it. Objects are arranged differently based on the type of Video Server. See A2 OTU Supported Source/Destinations for more information. Figure 13: Filtering/Configuration Tab Click on the Filtering/Configuration Tab for additional options. Use this form to filter the files or clips to be displayed. Use this text box to identify the Maximum Files to Display. Click the Save button to save the selected options. Click the Reset button to reset the forms to the default values. 11

4. Clicking on the Filtering/Configuration Tab will allow filtering the view of the clips on the Video Server and configuration of the Number of Files to Display. a. Once the filter has been identified and the number of files to display has been configured, click on the Save button to save the filter and view the filtered list of clips. b. The Reset button will reset the forms to the defaults and not produce any filtering or display configuration. 5. Once one or more objects have been selected, they may be dragged-anddropped to an archive folder in the DIVA Objects Panel. 6. From this point the process continues the same as when archiving files. 7. To exit the OTU screen and return to other DIVArchive functionality, click the desired tab/icon in the Icon Bar. The Control GUI may also be closed at this point if desired. 2.3 Restore Operations Restoration of an object is initiated by dragging the object from the DIVA Objects Panel on the right to the desired destination folder in the Source Destination Panel on the left. Restoring through OTU does not allow for visually selecting individual archived files, but displays only objects. To perform a Restore operation, start the same way as when archiving. 1. Select the Source Destination View on the Source Destination Panel 2. Select a Destination Location using the pull-down box. a. This time the selection will be used as the Destination rather than the Source. 3. Click the Open button to display the folder structure for this destination. 4. Expand the folder structure (click the plus sign [+] to the left of the folder) until the folder intended for the restored object is visible. 12

Figure 14: Source Destination View and DIVA Objects View Ready for Restore This is now the Destination rather than the Source as in an Archive Operation. Expand the folder where the restored object will be placed. Select the object to be restored and drag-and-drop it to the Source Destination Panel on the left. To display a view of objects in the archive, there are several filters available on the top of the DIVA Objects Panel. Figure 15: DIVA Objects Filter Options The Category Filter can be used to limit the display. To see all Categories use the global wild card (*). o It is possible to specify a single Category by name and use a truncated name to view a subset. An example of a truncated name would be My*; which would only include Categories that begin with My. The ending of the Category Name does not matter in this case because of the use of the wild card (*), which indicates that anything after My will match the filter as long as the Category Name starts with My. o Wild cards may only be used as a trailing asterisk (*) for truncation. 13

The Object Filter works the same as the Category Filter, allowing for designation of all Objects, or a subset of Object Names. The Time/Date Range Filter is available for specifying a Time/Date range with both beginning and ending dates being specified as a year, month, day, hour, and minute. The Enable Checkbox is used to turn the Time/Date Filter on or off. To turn the filter on, click the checkbox; to turn the filter off, uncheck the box. After making any changes to any of the filter fields, clicking the Update button refreshes the DIVA Object Panel view. 5. Select the object to restore using the same process as when archiving files. a. Unlike archiving files, where just dragging-and-dropping from the panel with no files selected produces a global archiving request, restoring requires at least one object to be selected. 6. Drag the object from the DIVA Objects Panel to a folder in the Source Destination Panel and release the mouse button. 7. The standard Send Restore Request dialog box will appear with the Object Name, Category, and Destination filled in. All other fields will be either blank or set to defaults. Figure 16: Send Restore Request Dialog Box 8. Click the Send button to restore the object, or modify one or more fields before clicking Send. The Reset button clears all of the fields and allows for entering 14

requests manually. To cancel a restore before files are actually transferred, click the Cancel button. 9. To exit the OTU screen and return to other DIVArchive functionality, click the desired tab/icon in the Icon Bar. The Control GUI may also be closed at this point if desired. 15

3 Special Installation and Configuration 3.1 OTU Installation Notes: Installation and configuration of OTU is only applicable in one case: when the DIVArchive Manager does not have access to the Source/Destination, but the Oracle DIVArchive Actor does have access. In this instance, the FTP Proxy must be installed on the Actor machine. OTU only supports FTP and not SFTP In the case described in the above note, there are additional installation and configuration steps required beyond the standard DIVArchive process in order to obtain the Object Transfer Utility functionality. The following subsections cover the processes required. 3.1.1 Acquiring the FTP Proxy Server Oracle does not provide the required FTP Proxy as described in the previous section. The supported FTP Proxy may be obtained from http://handcraftedsoftware.org. 3.2 OTU Configuration DIVArchive uses an FTP Proxy Server to enable a connection from the DIVArchive Manager (GUI machine) to the Source/Destination via an Actor machine. See A1 DIVArchive Options and Licensing for DIVArchive licensing information. Figure 17: DIVArchive OTU Proxy Connections DIVArchive Manager Machine with GUI DIVArchive Actor Machine with FTP Proxy Server DIVArchive Source/Destination 3.2.1 FTP Proxy Server Configuration and Startup Configuration of the FTP Proxy Server is required before using it. If there is another FTP Server running on the machine, stop the server. 1. Open the FreeProxy Control Center from the Windows Menu using Start, FreeProxy, FreeProxy Control Center. a. In the main window of the FreeProxy Control Center, select the Ports Tools icon. b. The FreeProxy/FreeWeb dialog box will appear. 2. Enter the Name for the Server. a. Example: FTPProxySvr. 3. In the Protocol combo box, select FTP Proxy. 16

4. Enter 21 for the Client Port value. 5. Under Local Binding select the Ethernet controller of your system, it should automatically get the IP Address of your system and display it in the right hand side box. 6. Enter the desired values for Read Timeout (in seconds) and Connect Timeout (in seconds). 7. Under FTP Proxy Options select Allow incoming port connect. a. Any IP address b. Proxy option: USER RemoteId@Remotehost. 8. Click on the Done button. 9. In the main tool bar, click on Start/Stop. 10. Click on Start FreeProxy in Console Mode. After configuring and starting the FTP Proxy Server, use the following commands to test the configuration and operation: >ftp 172.16.3.21 The IP Address of the machine where FTP Proxy Server is running. >User: anonymous@172.16.3.100 The User ID and Host IP Address of the FTP server to log into. >Pass: anonymous Password for the FTP Server. This test should log in to the 172.16.3.21 FTP Server. If these commands fail to log into the FTP Server, there is something set incorrectly in the configuration. 3.2.2 OTU Video Server Source Configuration This section covers the configuration of DIVArchive to work with the OTU Enhancements. Configuration parameters are modified through the DIVArchive Configuration Utility. 1. Start the DIVArchive Configuration Utility. 2. Connect to the DIVArchive Database. 3. In the Source and Destinations Panel, click on + to add the source. The Add new row in Sources and Destinations dialog box will appear. a. Enter the Source Name. b. Enter the IP Address of the Video Server. c. Select Source Type: OMNEON for Omneon server, PDR for GVG server, LEITCH, etc. 4. Select the Production System. 17

5. Enter Connection Options: a. login userid b. pass password c. port 21 d. OTUlogin userid e. OTUpass password f. OTUport 21 g. OTUIP ip address Notes: login, pass, and port are used by the DIVArchive Actor to communicate with the Video Server. These are the Video Server FTP userid, password, and port. A different login, password, and port can be used to access the list of clips than the login used by the Actor to transfer the clips. For example with Grass Valley Profile Standalone Server, the triton user can list clips while the movie user is only able to transfer clips in GXF (General exchange Format) format. OTUlogin, OTUpass, OTUport, and OTUIP are used by OTU to display the files/clips in the left panel of the OTU Window. OTUlogin o FTP User for the Back Up, Mirror Video Server, or Video Server. OTUpass o FTP User password for the Back Up, Mirror Video Server, or Video Server. OTUport o FTP Port ID for the Back Up, Mirror Video Server, or Video Server. OTUIP o IP Address of the Back Up, Mirror Video Server, or FTP Proxy Server. In case of PDR, login, pass and port are the FTP parameters used by the Actor for the movie user and OTUlogin, OTUpass, OTUport, and OTUIP are the parameters of the FTP server for the normal user. For example: -login movie -pass movie -port 21 -OTUlogin anonymous 18

OTUpass anonymous -OTUport 21 -OTUIP 172.16.3.100 In the case of other video server types, -login, pass, and port are the FTP parameters used by the Actor. OTUlogin, OTUpass, OTUport, and OTUIP can be used by the OTU to talk to the Video Server through the FTP Proxy. 6. Max Throughput(Mb/s): 1000 7. Max Accesses: 10 8. Max Read Accesses: 10 9. Max Write Accesses: 10 10. Click the OK button. a. The Source and Destination will be added the list. 11. Notify the Manager and Synchronize with the database. 12. Stop and then Start the DIVArchive Manager. 19

4 Frequently Asked Questions 4.1 Does the Object Transfer Utility perform more than Archive and Restore? Answer: No. The Object Transfer Utility is simply a graphical interface to make Archive and Restore requests easier to identify and submit. 4.2 Why can t I see the OTU item in the far left panel when I open the Control GUI? Answer: In order to access the OTU tree you must be logged in as an Administrator. 4.3 What is the Administrator Login and Password?
