Workflows
This screen allows you to configure the Cablecast Workflows. Workflows provide a rules based mechanism for automatically managing assets on a Cablecast system. Assets can be moved, copied, or deleted. Currently Cablecast supports 5 different Workflows:
Workflow | Description |
---|---|
Archive | Archive playback assets based on a Show Search |
Restore | Restore playback assets needed for schedule runs |
Backup | Backup playback assets to a secondary File Store based on a Show Search |
Delete | Delete playback assets based on a Saved Search |
Mirror | Synchronize the contents of an entire File Store to another File Store |
Main Workflows Screen
The main Workflows screen lists all current Workflows in a table format. The New Workflow
button is used to create a new Workflow.
For each exisiting Workflow in the table there are buttons available to
- Edit
- View Report (except Restore Workflow)
- Log
Workflows Report Screen
This screen will display the status of the selected Workflow. It can be used to determine whether the Workflow is in progress or completed and if there were any failed transfers. The View All
button will display a detailed asset report for each category.
Workflows Log Screen
This screen displays a list of log entries related to the selected Workflow. It can be used to view when specific assets were moved, copied, or deleted as well as the File Stores involved. Clicking on an Asset, Source Files Store, or Destination File Store in the log will open the associated screen.
