Configuring MediaCentral Zones
An administrator configures a multi-zone environment through the Zone settings in the System Settings layout. For information about configuring a multi-zone environment, see the Avid MediaCentral Platform Services Installation and Configuration Guide.
After configuration on the server, the MediaCentral zones are listed in the MediaCentral Zones pane. These are the zones that make up your multi-zone environment. Information about each zone is displayed in the Details tab.
If there are no zones configured on the server, the MediaCentral Zones tab lists the default zone. No further configuration is needed.
If multiple zones are configured, they are listed in the MediaCentral Zones pane.
The following fields are displayed in the Details tab:
• ID: The UUID of the selected zone, which is assigned when the zone is created on the MediaCentral server. This field is not editable. This ID can be useful for troubleshooting, for example, to understood data in logs.
• Name: The name of the zone as it was configured in the Zones settings in the System Settings layout. This name is stored in the UMS and is an easy way to identify the zone. An administrator can edit the name of zone, and the changed name will be used in the Users layout and will also be changed in the Zones settings.
