Overview
On the just:in Engine Linux server appliance you can find:
- The basic Linux installation (CentOS 7.x)
- Video card driver (AJA or BlackmagicDesign)
- just:in Engine (TOA Media Engine = tme)
- just:connect (TOA just:connect = tjc)
just:in Engine Linux and just:connect start automatically when the Linux system has been booted. If they are configured properly they can immediately communicate with a just:in User Interface.
User and Password
The system can be accessed with following credentials via ssh.
User: justin Password: justin
Network Settings
By default both network ports are set to DHCP (also the IPMI port is set to DHCP).
Blackmagic Firmware Updater
Only update the Blackmagic driver if you have issues with the system.
In some situations the Blackmagic video card needs a Firmware update. Verify if the card is working properly with the installed driver version by using the following command:
BlackmagicFirmwareUpdater status
No Firmware update is required if all inputs display the status ok. If the status is not ok use following command to update the firmware. Restart the system afterwards.
BlackmagicFirmwareUpdater update [device]
just:connect Configuration File & Logs
just:connect stores all Channel related information (settings, presets…) in this file:
/var/justconnect/JustConnect.txt
Delete this file if there is a major problem with the system. After deleting this config file just:connect must be restarted.
Please beware that you can also save and restore this JustConnect.txt file.
Logs
just:connect saves log files. There is log file for each just:connect start and for each Channel. It can be found here:
/var/log/justconnect
The just:in linux engine also saves logs. These can be found here:
/var/log/tme
