Reinstallation from the UI
This section describes functionality specific to the Twenty-One Encoder hardware appliance. Content to be reviewed with the product team before publishing.
If your server behaves strangely, underperforms, or has a broken configuration, you can reinstall it. The reinstallation feature makes a clean installation of the currently booted version. It keeps only licenses; everything else turns back to default (including passwords).
You can start the Reinstallation by clicking the Perform reinstallation button on the Version Management page.
Once changes are applied, you are presented with the result and the server reboots itself. The following boot may take longer, and the server may reboot itself several times to finish the process. When the Reinstallation is completed, the machine will boot up normally, allowing the user to login into the UI.
