Disable CMS and disconnect from Opencast

When you use the Admin panel to disable CMS on Pearl Nano, the remote recorder disconnects from Opencast. As long as Pearl Nano is still registered, you can create new scheduled sessions in Opencast for this remote recorder, but the events schedule won't synchronize until CMS is re-enabled.

If CMS is re-enabled on Pearl Nano before a VOD session is scheduled to end, recording starts automatically on Pearl Nano when the connection to Opencast is re-established.

Important considerations

• You cannot start unscheduled ad hoc events when CMS is disabled on Pearl Nano.
• Sessions that are scheduled to start while CMS is disabled on Pearl Nano do not start on Pearl Nano.

• Deleting Pearl Nano in Opencast permanently deletes future scheduled and recurring sessions associated with that remote recorder.

• Do not disable CMS while an event is in progress.

1. Login to the Admin panel as admin, see Connect to the Admin panel.
