Calculating Total Preview Request
Priority
The numeric priority of preview requests is determined by the combination of static
and dynamic factors. Higher numbers correspond to higher priority. A static priority
factor is set when the request is generated. Its effect does not change the overall
priority after the request is generated and is waiting to be satisfied. A dynamic
priority factor can increase or decrease the overall priority of a request while the
request is waiting to be satisfied.
The total priority for a preview request is the sum of all priority factors. It is
calculated as follows:
total priority = vsn_priority + wm_priority + (age_priority *
time_in_sec_as_preview_request)
Setting Up a Preview Request Priority
Scheme
Change the default preview request FIFO scheme only if there are compelling
reasons to do so, such as the following:
■ Ensure that staging requests are processed before archive requests.
■ Ensure that archive requests gain top priority when a file system is about to fill
up.
■ Push requests that use a specific group of media to the top of the preview request
list.
