leonrak Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 I have about 10 storage groups. I want when I import like 100 videos, each group get like 10 videos. Is this possible? after some searching in KVS I notice there is a field for import "storage group". Whats the proper format to use it? (while this might do the job is there any easier method to spread imported videos among storage groups) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tech Support Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 In Settings -> Content settings you can choose the default storage group for all new videos. You can choose random option there, and do not specify anything in import data. So KVS will randomly pick a storage group for all imported videos.

There are a few server groups that I dont want to add new videos to them (they are almost full), Is there any way to exclude them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tech Support Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 You can deactivate any server group to prevent it from being used in new videos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I deactivate them, Are visitors still able to watch videos that are in those deactivated server groups? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tech Support Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 Yes, deactivating server groups is not affecting visitors. KVS in general will never allow to have a situation when something is not working (e.g. when server groups have videos these videos will stop working).

leonrak Posted November 22, 2021 Author Share Posted November 22, 2021 I think there is a misunderstanding. if I import 100 videos and I choose random, KVS will choose one storage group randomly and import all that 100 videos in that. However I want it spread the 100 videos among all my storage groups. It means if I have 5 storage group each one get 20 videos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So videos on deactivated server groups are not watchable, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, videos on deactivated groups can be played normally. Group status only affects if new videos will be put on this group or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
