Config Values

Here, basic config values can be managed.

The value of each field can be modified. Refer to Key Concepts for using the table view and editing values.

For each value, the user has the chance to reset it’s value to default by using the rotating arrow button.

Please note that boolean values are case sensitive. Boolean values should be set as true and false.

Field Descriptions

Field	Type	Example	Description
ChunkProcessAliveFactor	integer	3	FileBasedLivenessPeriod * ChunkProcessAliveFactor Factor of how often a file based lifeness check could fail before the module marks itself as failed.
ChunkProcessorCommandGraceTimeInSeconds	integer	300	Maximum time in seconds a command will be executed when it is over the due time.
ChunkProcessorStatusCheckTimeInSeconds	integer	5	The cycle time of the ChunkProcessor for requesting status from running recordings.
ChunkStartAllowedInThePastInSeconds	integer	30	Max time in seconds a command's first execution time may lie in the past to be scheduled, set to 0 if no short measure bookings should be allowed
FileBasedLivenessDelay	integer	2000	This is the time period in seconds Kubernetes grants to the module to come up and send readiness. Some modules take longer to become available due to the reading of complex external data sources. Has to be aligned with the Kubernetes cluster settings.
FileBasedLivenessPeriod	integer	5	This is the cycle time for the modules reporting file based liveness probes.
MaxRecordingLengthInHours	integer	12	The maximum length of a recording in VidiControl. Some recorders limit the maximal length of a recording.
MaxRetryTimeForNotificationsInSeconds	integer	60	For notifications that rely on VidiCore items. If no item is available yet, an attempt is made to resend the notification. After this time period specified in seconds, the retry is cancelled.
MaxTimeToWriteToQueueDirectlyInSeconds	integer	60	If the execution time of a chunk's first command is nearer in the future thanthis, the scheduler puts the chunk directly to the queue
MinRecordingLengthInSeconds	integer	15	Minimum length of a recording.
NotAssignedBookingOffsetInMinutes	integer	2880	Offset where recordings are checked for the not assigned ports.
NotAssignedCheckIntervalInMinutes	integer	60	Intervall for the not assigend port checker.
RecurrenceMaxEndDate	string	2050-12-31T23:59:59.000Z	Maximum end for recurrend recordings.
RecurrenceMaxOccurences	integer	100	Maximum allowed instances for a recurring recording.
RecurringInstantiatorIntervalInMinutes	integer	10	Intervall for the recurrent chunk instanciator.
RecurringInstantiatorOffsetInMinutes	integer	1440	Offset where recurrence occurences are instanciated.
StatusFailureCount	integer	3	How often in a row a failed status is allowed before the whole command set to fail.
SystemTimeZone	string	W. Europe Standard Time	System time zone, needed for recurrence calculations.
TechDataBackgroundIntervalInSeconds	integer	10	Defines the time span in seconds between two TechDataUpdater-runs.
TechDataProcessingIntervalInSeconds	integer	60	Minimum age the messages must have before the TechDataUpdater processes them.
TechDataRemoveUnsuccessfullyInSeconds	integer	300	Messages of this age are removed by the TechDataUpdater if they couldn’t be processes successfully.
ThirdPartyCreateVidiCoreCollectionsHidden	boolean	true	True if collections shall be created hidden for the media portal.
ThirdPartyCreateVidiCoreItemsHidden	boolean	true	True if items shall be created hidden for the media portal.
ThirdPartyGrpcDeadlineInSeconds	integer	100	Timeout for GRPC call to ThirdParty Grpc service - no global setting, must be set on each request. Default is 0 -> no timeout.
ThirdPartyMaxNumberOfRetries	integer	2	Retry count for the ThirdParty Connector (VidiCore).
ThirdPartyRetryControlDbCheckIntervalInSeconds	integer	10	ThirdPartyRetryControl will check the DB every x seconds.
ThirdPartyRetryIntervalInSeconds	integer	30	ThirdPartyRetryControl processes retry entries with last try at least x seconds ago.
ThirdPartyVidiCoreChunkItemLockIntervalInHours	integer	48	Length of the item lock put on created items in VidiCore.
UiDefaultCrashRecordLengthInMinutes	integer	25	Default length of crash recordings created in the UI
UiDefaultRecordingLengthInMinutes	integer	120	Default length of normal recordings created in the UI
UiMaxOccurrencesForRecurrenceFrontend	integer	100	Maximum number of recordings a recurrence created in the UI can have
UiShowDashboard	boolean	true	True if dashboard should be shown.
VIDISPINE_DEFAULT_GROUP	string	VPMS_Platform_Default_Group	Default group for created VidiCore items and collections.
VirtualChunkCollisionDetectorIntervalInMinutes	integer	60	Intervall for the collision checker.
VirtualChunkCollisionDetectorOffsetInMinutes	integer	2880	Offset where recordings are checked for collisions.
HoldbackTimeForBookingObjectsInDays	integer	180	Booking entries will be deleted after the given number of days.
HoldbackTimeForActionsInDays	integer	180	Action entries will be deleted after the given number of days.
HoldbackTimeForRoutingsInDays	integer	180	Routing eintries will be deleted after the given number of days.
HoldbackTimeForThirdPartyRetryInDays	integer	180	ThirdPartyRetry entries will be deleted after the given number of days.
HoldbackTimeForChunkProcessorStateInDays	integer	180	ChunkProcessorStatus entries will be deleted after the given number of days.
HoldbackTimeForMessagesInDays	integer	180	Messages entries will be deleted after the given number of days.
DeletionSimulationMode	boolean	true	The DatabaseCleaner will run in simulation mode and log possible deletions only
DeletionActivated	boolean	false	The DatabaseCleaner will be activated
PoolPortSelectionMethod	string	random	The pool port selection method. Possible values are "first" and "random". Default is “first”
ClonePrefix	string	CLONE_	The prefix the titles get when doing a clone on the timeline. Leaving this empty will deactivate the feature. Default is an empty string.
ListViewDefaultTimeRanges	string	See section below.	The presets for the List View time range selector are stored here. It has to be configured as a JSON, see example.
UiShowListView	boolean	true	Whether the List View should be displayed in the GUI or not.
StartNowKeepEnd	boolean	false	Default is “false”. false: "Start Now" will move the recording to start now (and end earlier, accordingly). This keeps the recording duration. true: "Start Now" will extend the recording to start now (but not end earlier). This extends the recording duration. *action is only available when resulting duration does not exceed maximum recording duration

ListViewDefaultTimeRanges

The time ranges ListViewDefaultTimeRanges in the List view are configured as a JSON object in this config value.

This is object for change in later releases.

Example for this JSON object:
