Grass Valley AMPP Manager

About

The Grass Valley Agile Media Processing Platform (GVAMPP) connector will retrieve a list of existing workloads to be managed/configured.

A smart-serial connection is needed to listen to incoming messages, and an additional two HTTP connections are needed, one for the GVAMPP and one for the SignalR Forwarder.

Configuration

Connections

IP Connection - Main

This connector uses a smart-serial connection by IP to act as listener.

  • IP address/host: The polling IP or URL of the destination (default: any).
  • IP port: The IP port of the destination (default: 5001).

HTTP Connection - GVAMPP

This connector uses an HTTP connection and requires the following input during element creation:

HTTP CONNECTION:

  • IP address/host: The polling IP or URL of the destination.
  • IP port: The IP port of the destination (default: 443).
  • Device address: The bus address of the device. If the proxy server has to be bypassed, specify BypassProxy.

HTTP Connection - SignalR Forwarder

This connector uses an HTTP connection and requires the following input during element creation:

HTTP CONNECTION:

  • IP address/host: The polling IP or URL of the destination.
  • IP port: The IP port of the destination (default: 443).
  • Device address: The bus address of the device. If the proxy server has to be bypassed, specify BypassProxy.

Web Interface

The web interface is only accessible when the client machine has network access to the product.

Usage

General

This page contains general configuration parameters: API Keys, Last Login Time, and Token Expiration. Token Expiration is by default set to 24 hours, but a new token will automatically be requested whenever there is an API key change and every 12 hours.

Application Types

Here you will find the application types table.

Workloads

Here you will find the workloads table as well as a button to refresh the workloads. Each row contains several buttons/toggle buttons:

  • Get State: Sends a Get State POST command.
  • Disable Get State: Sends a Disable Get State DELETE command.
  • Start: Sends a Start Workload POST command.
  • Stop: Sends a Stop Workload POST command.
  • Refresh State on Restart: Sends a Get State command after a restart of the element.

Fabrics and Nodes

Here you will find the fabrics and nodes tables as well as a button to refresh them.

Snapshots

Here you will find the snapshots table as well as a button to refresh the snapshots. Each row contains several buttons/toggle buttons:

  • Start: Sends a Start Snapshot POST command.
  • Stop: Sends a Stop Snapshot POST command.
  • Restore Workloads After Start: Restores the workload on element restart.

Debug

This page contains the current listener message as well as the response to AMPP.
