A thorough and rigorous program of operational procedures and
processes can reduce the chance of introducing new faults to the
streaming media system as well as reducing the impact any resulting
failures will have. Some valuable operational processes that you
can perform on a regular basis include:
Backing up content.
Removing unused playlists, publishing points, and content from
the system.
Regularly reviewing stream logs for abnormalities.
Monitoring streaming operation using the Monitor tab and
investigating error conditions.
Establishing a regular schedule for hardware maintenance.
