Flash media server 3 on VMWare virtual machine

• Can I convert a server disk to a virtual machine?

  I have a number of OS X 10.5 servers running on hardware that is incredibly underused.  Since the Fusion 3 supports running OS X Server virtualized, is it possible to convert a live server disk to a virtual machine to the BootCamp to VM? I could run all 5 of my server on a single Xserve systems. I dug around, but everything points to a new facility to achieve this.

  Thank you

  Tim

  Yes, it is possible to convert physical machines to Mac OS X Server VM. I've posted instructions on how to do this in the following thread: Re: Snow Leopard Server VM existing?

  In your case, the only thing that needs to change is the version of the OS - pick instead of 10.6 10.5. I tried this with one of my machines so far, I would be interested to comment on the question of whether instructions to work for you. I'll probably convert this post into a document at some point...

  I also thought the ability to hire only the OS X physical disk partitions without copying the data (like Fusion for Boot Camp). However, Fusion currently only supported the MBR partition tables to access raw partitions, and most Macs are partitioned GPT (or hybrid MBR + TPG). You can try to use Library/Application Support/VMware Fusion/vmware-rawdiskCreator to see if it recognizes the OS X partitions. If so, you should be able to create a virtual disk that references the partitions and boot from it as you would for a machine virtual Boot Camp.

  It is also possible to use a physical disk full (instead of individual partitions), but you would need to have partitions not mounted before using virtual machines that reference the physical disks. If you are interested in, there is a link in this thread as well.

• Flash Media Server 3 - Can RTMP and HTTP tunneling be set up?

  I have read a few forums posted here and also searched the Web widely but can not find a clear answer or get HTTP tunneling to work with Flash Media Server 3.

  Q1: Flash Media Server 3 can be configured for the Protocol RTMP and HTTP tunneling to work? The reason why I need to know if this will work is due to more and more customers report that the videos do not play for them, and I have concluded that these customers are sitting behind a firewall that has blocked port 1935. So I would like to set up the FLV playback control to try to spread the file on RTMP and if this does not work, use the HTTP protocol.

  Can someone please! Is there a whitepaper that you can tell me or even provide an example for me.

  Here is my asctionscript I've tried to make it work, but it does not.

  A few other notes are, the. The online FLVs in this folder: D:\Adobe\Flash Media Server 3\applications\vod\media

  The videos are recorded and then converted. FLV files and loaded into this folder.

  I have all hard coded below to try to get to operate this way first and thought that would be easier for you to help me. The ultimate solution is I use FLVPlayback control and transmit the location and. Name of the FLV file on the query string "http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx??" " VIDEO = rtmp://216.203.12.15/vod/flv. I pasted the code object * to show this example below the asctionscript.

  package
  {
  import flash.display.Sprite;
  import flash.filters.BlurFilter;
  Import fl.video.FLVPlayback;
  import flash.display.LoaderInfo;
  
  import flash.net.NetConnection;
  import flash.events.NetStatusEvent;
  to import flash.net.NetStream;
  import flash.media.Video;

  
  public class stream extends Sprite
  {
  var nc:NetConnection;
  var stream: NetStream;
  var playStream:NetStream;
  var video: Video;
  Variable that goes into .flv to query string
  var videoPath:String = «»

  public void Streams()
  {
  NC = new NetConnection();
  nc.addEventListener (NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, netStatusHandler);

  This is where I am trying to connect via RTMP and if it does not try RTMPT on port 80 HTTP

  NC. Connect ("rtmp://216.203.12.15/vod");

  NC. Connect ("rtmpt://216.203.12.15:80/vod"); ")

  }

  Switch (event.info.code)
  {
  case "NetConnection.Connect.Success":
  trace ("congratulations! you are connected");
  connectStream (nc);

  Instead you can also call createPlayList() here
  break;

  read a stream stored on the server

  Stream = new NetStream (nc);
  stream.addEventListener (NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, netStatusHandler);
  Stream.client = new CustomClient();

  Assuming that your FMS is configured to bind to port 80, and there is nothing else on the binding of FMs machine to port 80 on the same IP address, your FMS should be ready to accept applications for tunnel using rtmpt on port 80 Protocol.

  Where you go wrong, this is how you make the connection in your client-side code. You don't want to connect several statements that you are... you want to do one, and then let the flashplayer running in its default login process, or set up a timer to manage failures of Protocol in your own code.

  When you call NetConnection.connect() without specifying a port (or an other rtmp Protocol) in the url, the flashplayer first attempts a connection rtmp on port 1935. If this fails, the flashplayer will automatically attempt a connection by tunnel via port 80. The status event will not be distributed until the Flashplayer Gets a successful login, or fails on all combinations of port/protocol. So, you just make a call to the connect() function.

  If you prefer to try combinations of port/protocol specific and define your own time-out, you can set the port/protocol in the url

  NC. Connect ("rtmp://myserver.com:1935/app/instance"); ")

  or

  NC. Connect ("rtmpt://myserver.com:80/app/instance"); ")

  When you set the port/protocol, the flashplayer will attempt to establish the connection on this port/protocol only and the status event based on this single attempt to shipping.

  So, if you don't want to rely on the flashplayer to treat this, you would first try rtmp/1935. In your State Manager, you inspect the event info.code property. If you don't get a successful connection, then try rtmpt/80

• Roles of server separate from the virtual machine on a server?

  Hello

  I'm currently learning the server admin so please forgive my ignorance.

  I bought a server and got Win Server R2 2012. Im trying to focus by trial and error and so want to install multiple roles - that I know is not recommended because some may conflict or cause additional problems etc etc - I am not in an operational environment, but trying to imitate such.

  I've read elsewhere that you can put different roles of server on the individual virtual machines - say, for example, the print server role is on a VM that is separate to a file server role, and she needs to be restarted or goes down for some reason any you loose a single service.

  My questions are the following:

  Is this possible?

  Is this desirable?

  Whats software is used to implement this if yes?

  Hyper-V can be used?

  Thank you in advance.

• Flash Media Server in Adobe Connect update

  We recently conducted an audit of security and one of the problems highlighted was that the version of Flash Media Server on our Acrobat Connect Pro (version 4.0.3) servers is no longer supported and the supported version is 4.5. We are currently running Adobe Connect 9.1.1 and I had to spend 9.3 soon. Will be 9.3 update also update the version of Flash Media Server 4.5 or higher? Alternatively he is allowed to apply just Flash Media 4.5 or higher?

  Thank you

  I do not think that 9.3 update will be updated to FMS 4.5 +. Connect is built on a version of FMS, and which usually does not change between versions of full version.

  The FMS instance that belongs to Connect is fully supported by Adobe as part of your Connect & maganga. If there is a security problem you have with it, apart from the version number, I would recommend that you raise these concerns with the Platinum support to see if they apply, or can be solved.

• Live from Digital Rapids to Flash Media Server

  Hello

  I use a Digital Rapids StreamZ (version 3.8.0) encoder to stream YouTube, Dailymotion, Akamai. I want to install a Flash server on the same VLAN as my Digital Rapids to check coding in case there is a problem with YT/DM. So I downloaded Adobe Flash Media Server and now want to send my feeds to the AMS. What the URL of the server and the name of the workflow should I use to set my Digital Rapids? How can I configure the AMS to receive the stream of the Dominican Republic?

  Thank you very much in advance for your help and advice.

  mdicamp

  Solved: an another Flash Server was installed on the same server and have priority over configurations in port. I uninstalled it and streaming to AMS works very well. Hope this helps someone else.

• VCenter Server installed as a virtual machine within a ESXi servers it manages?

  Hi all.  I'm new in the world of VSphere... still in my evaluation period.

  I have only a single ESXi server running at the moment but plans to add a second later for high availability, vmotion, increase general capacity, etc.  They are / will be ESXi running on the internal storage and the virtual machines running on a shared SAN.

  Today, I installed VCenter Server 4 on a server at bottom of range/Office that I was carrying around running XP Pro x 64.

  As I was installing I read the guide installation and to my surprise, it seems to recommend that I have installed VCenter Server 4 as a virtual machine on my ESXi host.

  Now maybe I just spent too much time setting up my without new Lefthand requiring a 'witness' during the failover of one SAN to another... but I was under the impression that VCenter Server is not designed simply to host configuration, but is also designed to act as a 'witness' or to take account of quorum whenever a failure scenario occurred on one of my ESXi hosts.  I also noticed the VCenter Server features of a port "heartbeat", which I suppose one would use for the ESXi server heartbeat, but perhaps it is used for "connected mode" with other VCenter servers (I was intending to use only one since it is a small scale installation) I also felt that it would be useful enough to restore a damaged or shot ESXi host.

  So my question is, if my ESXi host dies and it is where I have VCenter Server installed, then high availability will be unable to work?  I guess there are going to be other issues with me unable to access VCenter Server while I have an ESXi host shot, too, as a greater difficulty to get the ESXi up?

  Maybe I'm wrong understand the purpose of the VCenter server... maybe it's not something that's necessary for HA, recovery, etc. and acts only as a configuration tool until something is wrong?  Or maybe I misunderstood the installation guide and they recommend only installing VCenter Server on an ESX box... they don't want this ESX box to be part of the group that manages the server?

  Finally, if indeed they recommend I install this on a ESXi host manages... would I ideally be install this for local storage on the server (where I installed ESXi) or on the SAN (where all my other virtual machines are installed)... or is it just personal preference?

  Thank you!!

  When you add hosts an active hemagglutinin vCenter cluster HA agent is installed on it.  This agent is what is actually the HA.  While necessary to add new hosts in a cluster and configure some specific parameters of vCenter vCenter's agents HA are self-sufficient and can handle HA failover so vCenter is offline.

  You must install the vCenter VM on SAN storage, so that he can use the vMotion, sVmotion, DRS, HA, functions etc. that require a SAN.

• Flash Media Server 4.5 fails often when I log onto the service as administrator on Windows 2008 R2 for x 64

  I recently installed the Flash Media Server 4.5 on my Windows 2008 x 64 R2

  Whenever I try to restart the service as an administrator he starts giving problems such as making connection authenticated with Flash Media Encoder Live (I installed the x 64 plugin for authentication which is with v3.2 FMEL)

  Please can someone guide me why FMS 4.5 becomes unstable and buggy once I restart the Apache Server and Flash Media Service as an administrator! I need to host files on network drives so I need administrator access... If adobe don't like the administrator name then whats the alternative workaround, for example create usernames?

  Please Guide

  One of the solutions I've found is it's to say try doing all the three Services of Windows FMS ( Flash Media Server (FMS) ,Flash Media Administration Serverand FMSHttpd) in the few controller domain or at least the same administrator account.

  After doing this first manually stop Flash Media Administration Server. After the Administration Server stops now run the Flash Media Server (FMS), which should automatically launch the FMSHttpd (Apache) Service. Once the two are started, then try to start the Flash media Administration Server.

  To make sure that Flash Media Administration Service always begins LAST you can either use the manual Batch file in the boot sequence or can set the "Delayed start" option in the settings of Services.

• Live from Flash Media Server in Captivate

  Hello

  We are fortunate to have a Flash Media Server (4) which allows us to distribute video on our LAN using Flash CS5 and didn't have any problems. However, when I try to use it for Captivate 5 files I've had no success (even with 4 incidentally). I tried just about every chain I can think of no position, with the post office, FLV, to f4v, /mp4:, different folders / no record (VOD) etc etc. There must be something fundamentally wrong with what I do, but for the life of me I can't think what. The media server is currently providing video on our Intranet and we also use it for Adobe Acrobat Connect Pro. Any help on this is appreciated.

• How to test bandwidth continuously on localhost with Flash Media Server?

  Hello
  
  I'm trying debbug my code (ActionScript 3) client that works with Flash Media Server 4 on localhost. Everything seems fine until this day.
  
  However, when I'm testing my player with other remote streaming servers, I notice the bugs because of the transmission of lower bandwidth between the server and the player.
  
  Is there a simple way to simulate lower bandwidth with FMS4 on localhost (with config, application.xml, programming...)?

  Thank you

  SEB Ethier

  Have you tried using Client.setBandwidthLimit () API available in SSAS? He can probably help you with what you want to do.

  Beside that, you can use NetLimiter or shunra utlitiy to choke BW like client-side.

  Hope that will help you.

• How to check what version of flash media server is installed on

  Hi all.

  Is it possible to check which version of flash media server is installed on my computer?

  'Open flash Media Administration Console' from start-> all programs-> Adobe-> Flash Media Server... and then sign in using your credentials that gave you when installing. After login, click on "Manage servers" and then click on 'License', you will be able to see which version and which edition of FMS is installed.

  In addition, Flash Media Streaming server, Flash Media Interactive server and Flash Media Development server are no versions and editions.

  Kind regards
