[. . . ] Note: If a root user is already connected, and you try to connect as a root, you will have the following FTP error pop-up window (see figure 68). Figure 68 FTP Error Pop-Up Window SDLT 600A Product Manual 59 Chapter 3 Using Your Tape Drive FTP Transfers System and MXF files 3 The application is designed to connect and to transfer MXF files (see figure 66). Columns to show These checkboxes specify what you want to see in the columns of the panes (SDLT 600A client tab) in the list of files. Note: You can dynamically change the order of the columns in the pane using the mouse by simply moving one column to another place. 3 File data to extract 3 These checkboxes specify what information you want to extract when you select MXF properties on the MXF files. You can click MXF properties in the Contextual menu. FTP Client Options You can set two connection specifications: 3 · Buffer size -- Specifies the size in bytes of the buffers used by the applet to send or receive data on the network. Note: This option has no effect on other servers not using this application. The optimal file size is 10240 bytes, but you may also have to configure the settings on your network card to forward blocks of 10240 bytes on the network. Ensuring that these two settings are set is the only way to have the best transfer rate. · Timeout (sec) -- Specifies the timeout of the FTP client session in seconds. Session will be disconnected after the timeout occurs. 180 seconds is selected by default.
