Description of drawings
Fig. 1 is current typical time shift and reviews performance recording and redundancy scheme.
Fig. 2 is the time shift based on the active and standby realization of information source provided by the invention and the schematic diagram of reviewing the performance recording redundancy.
Embodiment
Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing, describe the specific embodiment of the present invention in detail:
At present typical time shift and review program when recording, relate generally to source of program signals switch, recording arrangement, record management server, wherein the source of program signals switch is responsible for that source of program signals is reviewed on each road and is offered recording arrangement with multicast mode, recording arrangement carries out concrete performance recording, and program is transformed into concrete file the hard disk from network data.To certain channel recording the time, every recording arrangement can only be recorded a copy, and the backup of institute's program recording need to be provided by the mutual backup between many recording arrangements.
For instance, there are 3 to record main frame in the current system, record main frame for every and can record 40 channels simultaneously, need to record altogether 60 channels, may record redundancy according to the principle of being recorded simultaneously a channel by 2 station servers so:
Recording arrangement 1 is recorded channel 1-40 specially;
Recording arrangement 2 is recorded channel 1-20 specially, and 51-60;
Recording arrangement 3 is recorded channel 21-60 specially;
Work as so like this recording arrangement 1 network or that this equipment uses own and break down, channel 1-40 just will provide wherein 1-20 by recording arrangement 2, provide 21-40 by recording arrangement 3.If at this moment the situations such as network, hard disk appear in performance recording equipment 3, the program of 21-40 channel just can't be recorded smoothly like this, causes the user can't watch the time shift of these channels or reviews program.
Therefore the present invention is directed to source of program signals, information source transmission network, record control procedure; improve respectively; namely as shown in Figure 2: the program of same channel with adopting the different network transmission link of 2 covers, forms main-apparatus protection mechanism when using multicast mode to be pushed to recording arrangement.When wherein a road network network breaks, other one the tunnel can also work on.
For the information source transmission network; the protection of 2 different multicast group then is provided for each road source of program signals; and the different multicast group of every road source of program signals realize access by the different network switchs, to form the interconnection of information source, the service disconnection of effectively avoiding network failure to bring.
On recording arrangement, require as each channel fix uses 2 multicast group as the input source simultaneously, and recorded simultaneously on this equipment from the received program of these 2 multicast group, avoid repetition by the difference that filename is set.
Record the then recording state of these channels of Real Time Monitoring of management server, in case certain program is recorded smoothly and is finished, then initiated the order of deletion redundant copy by this server, so that only preserve 2 of this program record copies between many recording arrangements, continue to keep the availability of original disk space.If the faults such as generation, network are recorded the copy situation that lost efficacy under the record management server so during certain performance recording, be not used further to externally provide the interactive TV time shift and review business; Until other copies record finish after, therefrom select 2 record copies, for the time shift of interactive TV and the business of reviewing provide service, unnecessary redundant copy is in the lump deletion also.
For instance, the time shift that realizes according to this method and review recording arrangement, can in recording management server, dispose the following parameter rule of recording:

When these 2 main frames are recorded the news hookup that 19:00 begins on January 1st, 2012 of CCTV one cover, time shift/review recording system will generate a unified filename, such as CCTV1-20120101-1900, and on recording arrangement 1, just will preserve 2 program file CCTV1-20120101-1900-r1-mc1, CCTV1-20120101-1900-r1-mc2, preserve other 2 program file CCTV1-20120101-1900-r2-mc1, CCTV1-20120101-1900-r2-mc2 at recording arrangement 2.These 4 files are recorded management and condition monitoring by recording management server, by recording management server selection any 2 copies wherein, Symbolic Links mechanism by the Linux/Unix system is associated with this CCTV1-20120101-1900 time shift/review program, is directly called by video server when the interactive TV user being provided service.
After performance recording is finished, by recording other 2 the files deletion of management server with these 4 copies, guarantee under the professional normal operating position of time shift/review, can be because the copy of preserving in the system not too much and the outer disk space of occupying volume causes the service efficiency of device resource to reduce.
Find that wherein certain road program goes wrong recording management server, standby road/multicast group 1 netting twine such as recording arrangement 2 is extracted by mistake, this copy of CCTV1-20120101-1900-r2-mc1 just is labeled as and records failure so, be not used further to external service, at this moment also have 3 complete copies in the system.
If at this moment time shift/review source of program signals switch 1 to break down, the main road/multicast group 1 of including on the recording arrangement 1 (main frame) so will be interrupted, and this copy of CCTV1-20120101-1900-r1-mc1 also can be marked as and record failure; Main road/the multicast group 2 of including on recording arrangement 2 (standby host) also will be interrupted, and the CCTV1-20120101-1900-r2-mc2 copy also will be marked as and record failure.At this moment also being left the CCTV1-20120101-1900-r1-mc2 copy in the system can work, and guarantees that time shift/reviewing business still can continue stable operation in troubleshooting in the phase.
Use this method, can based on to source of program signals, information source transmission network, record the improvement of control, realize time shift/review the redundancy protecting of performance recording, avoid network, information source, the service disconnection impact when recording main frame and cross faults occurring.
