kmp_cc_in_dump_folder
The `kmp_cc_in_dump_folder` directive configures the directory path for Kaltura Media Framework's dumped content in NGINX.
Description
The kmp_cc_in_dump_folder directive is used within the Kaltura Media Framework Common NGINX Module to specify the directory where the system will store dumped content. This directive is relevant in both the stream and stream server contexts, providing a way to manage the media content produced during processing. When set, it allows administrators to effectively organize and manage the media dumps, ensuring that all temporary files generated by streaming activities are stored in a designated location.
The directive accepts a single argument, which is the directory path. This path should be accessible by the NGINX process, and proper permissions must be granted to allow for read and write operations. Misconfiguration of this path may result in NGINX being unable to write the dumped content, potentially leading to failed streaming processes or errors in media delivery.
It is crucial for system administrators to confirm that the specified folder exists and is writable by the NGINX user. When using this directive, monitoring the storage space of the dump folder is also essential, as excessive usage could exhaust disk resources, impacting overall system performance.
Config Example
stream {
server {
kmp_cc_in_dump_folder /var/kaltura/dump;
# Additional stream and server configurations
}
}Ensure the specified directory exists before NGINX starts to avoid errors.
Verify that NGINX has adequate permissions to write to the dump folder.
Monitor the dump directory's storage usage to prevent service disruptions.
