■ If an sw_ping from machine 1 to machine 2 is successful <strong>and</strong> you still cannot access the remote<br />
framestore through your Visual Effects <strong>and</strong> Finishing application, check that the remote system<br />
has exported its directories so that the local system has read/write access. See Verifying Remote Clip<br />
Library Access <strong>and</strong> Permissions<br />
■ If an sw_ping from machine 1 to machine 2 is unsuccessful, validate the sw_framestore_map file<br />
on both machines <strong>and</strong> check that sw_probed <strong>and</strong> sw_serverd are running on both machines.<br />
Using sw_ping to Test Network Per<strong>for</strong>mance<br />
Use the sw_ping comm<strong>and</strong> to test network per<strong>for</strong>mance. For more significant results, run the test 100<br />
times.:<br />
-framestore <br />
-r<br />
-w<br />
-size <br />
-loop <br />
1 Start sw_ping: /usr/discreet/sw/sw_ping -framestore -r -w -size<br />
-loop <br />
Description:<br />
Is the name of the framestore to ping.<br />
Reads a buffer from the remote framestore.<br />
Writes a buffer to the remote framestore (non-destructive).<br />
Reads/writes a buffer of packetsize bytes.<br />
Executes this test n times.<br />
The following is an example <strong>for</strong> an NTSC (720 x 486 x 3) frame <strong>for</strong>mat, sent 100 times in read <strong>and</strong><br />
write mode to framestore my_framestore:<br />
/usr/discreet/sw/sw_ping -framestore my_framestore -read -write -size 1049760 -l 100<br />
Verifying Remote Clip Library Access <strong>and</strong> Permissions<br />
Verify that the local host has write permissions to the clip library directory of the remote host:<br />
1 Try to access the clip library directory of the remote host. Type: cd /hosts/<br />
/usr/discreet/clip<br />
2 If an error message appears on the client machine, check to see that the required network daemons<br />
are on. If you have access to /hosts//usr/discreet/clip, check you have root<br />
