Overview
This section describes how to set up a single or a redundant SDV multicast source
for SDV services. An SDV multicast source allows the DBDS to successfully deliver
the SDV service to subscribers. A redundant SDV multicast source allows the DBDS
to have a backup option in the event that SDV services cannot be delivered using the
primary SDV multicast source.

Using an Existing Source for SDV Services
Because you are using an existing source, we assume that you are familiar with the
procedures for editing a source; therefore, we have provided an overview of the
process, as well as a flowchart, within this section. For detailed instructions about
procedures for a process, refer to the DNCS Online Help (UNIX) 4.2.0.3 (part number
4012122). For details about SDV-specific fields, refer to Creating a New SDV
Multicast Source (on page 27) and Creating a Source Definition for a New Source
(on page 48).
