fiprecon updated to version 1.1

I updated fiprecon to version 1.1.

This version includes the following changes:

  • Better handling of files with file names including double spaces (thanks for the hint, Matt Geller)
  • Automatically deals with non default PresSTORE Archive Indices (thanks to Lars Petter Ommundsen at Video 4)
  • Better config tool handling

Final Cut Server & Workflow automation presentation at VideoVisions event in Paris

On Wednesday the 3rd of November I am going to present some new Final Cut Server automations I developed this summer.

The demo will include metadata exchange between FCSvr and other DAMs, complex automations, and fsevents based data protection using Archiware PresSTORE.

If you work with a storage system larger than 10TB and let’s say houndred thousands or more files stored on it, saving these data as a backup or mirror can be quite challenging.
I know many systems, which solely rely on RAID level 5 as the only security feature, which is somehow frightening if you consider the value of your data.
