Recording in Moolde about scalelite HOT 7 CLOSED

Hi @bbbmm,

Can you try doing a getRecordings call using API Mate?

Fill in your Scalelite server url and secret, and then click "getRecordings" on the right hand side.

Do you see the recordings you generated?

from scalelite.

Hi,

No, I am getting “SUCCESS noRecordings There are not recordings for the meetings”

from scalelite.

Below is the details of what was done:

1. EFS created and successfully mounted on bbb servers and scalelite host server under /mnt
2. Directory structure and permissions has been setup as mentioned on the documentation for bbb servers and scalelite server
   uid=998(bigbluebutton) gid=998(bigbluebutton) groups=998(bigbluebutton),2000(scalelite-spool)
3. Recording transfer scripts, https://github.com/blindsidenetworks/scalelite/tree/master/bigbluebutton, placed on the bbb servers as following

/usr/local/bigbluebutton/core/scripts/scalelite_batch_import.sh
/usr/local/bigbluebutton/core/scripts/post_publish/scalelite_post_publish.rb
/usr/local/bigbluebutton/core/scripts/scalelite.yml
(Configuration Modified)
work_dir: /var/bigbluebutton/recording/scalelite
spool_dir: /mnt/scalelite-recordings/var/bigbluebutton/spool

Above three scripts permission changed to make executable.

4. After that we run the scalelite_batch_import.sh, below is sample output

• What is the main purpose of moving the recording to shared volume? Is it only to archive published recording and free up space from the bbb node servers?
• Do we run the scalelite_batch_import.sh manually or using cron and what is the recommended running interval? Can we set it up to run every 1-hour?

• How to view the recorded meetings from Moodle.. We tested and no recording are shown? Any additional setup or configuration required?

One more step I forgot to include.

When you add the server url and secret, click the clear inputs button at the top first, then click the getRecordings link. Does it return the same response?

What is the main purpose of moving the recording to shared volume

Scalelite can't serve up the recordings from a BigBlueButton server unless it has read access to the recording files themselves.

Do we run the scalelite_batch_import.sh manually?

It only needs to be run if you have recordings on the server from before you setup Scalelite. It only needs to be run once as the scalelite-recording-importer.service that you setup already takes care of watching the BigBlueButton server for new recordings and moving them to the shared directory

When you add the server url and secret, click the clear inputs button at the top first, then click the getRecordings link. Does it return the same response?

Yes, i already did that

from scalelite.

one more thing, When we run bbb-record --watch on the bbb server we do see it as published "presentation"

from scalelite.

We successfully managed to make it work.

The issue was with the database permission.
few ips had to be added in the pg_hba.conf file

Thank you so much for this project.
Once again we are so happy and exited in implementing it! hopefully we will not face BBB heavy load disconnections issues anymore.

Best Wishes
