Parameter
Description
AdminState
The global AdminState for the Resource Manager. The
normal state is InService. Configuring the state to
OutOfService causes the Resource Manager to stop
servicing resource management requests.
StreamingZone
The name of the NGOD streaming zone. This string must
exactly match the string configured on the NGOD QAM
devices managed by the USRM. QAM devices that
implement NGOD protocols are configured for a serving
area by the streaming zone. When a NGOD QAM device
advertises its QAM channels to the ERM, the streaming
zone is specified. The ERM streaming zone is configured
to match the QAM device. This parameter is also used in
the ActivityLog if Comcast format is selected.
ResourceAllocationMode
Sets the resource allocation mode, as follows:
nMLT - this mode attempts to maximize capacity for
nMLT - this mode attempts to maximize capacity for
MostLoadedThreshold bandwidth programs. The
software assigns requests using the bandwidth above n
times the MostLoadedThreshold.
MLT - this mode is referred to as Tetris. The server load
MLT - this mode is referred to as Tetris. The server load
balances and selects the least loaded QAM channel until
a threshold is reached. When one QAM channel can no
longer accommodate the MostLoadedThreshold, then the
software switches to the most loaded mode and assigns
using the most loaded QAM channel.
FirstAvailable - this mode selects the first available QAM
FirstAvailable - this mode selects the first available QAM
channel in the USRM configuration. The order is in the
order of resource creation. The web tree control is
presented in this order.
MostLoadedThreshold
The resource allocation threshold in Mbps. The USRM
allocates programs on QAM carriers. At first, the server
selects the least-loaded carrier. This spreads the
programs evenly over all available carriers. As the
carriers begin to fill, the software must maintain
sufficient contiguous bandwidth available for HD
programs. This configuration parameter sets the
threshold for this change in selection criteria of the
algorithm. When one carrier has less than this configured
threshold, the server switches to the mode of allocating
programs on the most loaded carrier.
Default: 15 Mbps
