Enable or Disable CCM for All or Individual Decoder Services

You can choose to use CCM to manage content for selected services or for all services.

When CCM is Enabled:

• The service config page is read-only. Only Export button is enabled in service config page to export content.

• Content cannot be deployed to CCM enabled services through the Live Content UI.

• Content for all CCM enabled services can be managed through the Content Policies and the Content Library.

• Content subscription from CCM overrides content subscription from  (CONFIGURE) > Subscriptions page.

When CCM is Disabled:

• Content can be deployed from Live Content UI.

• The content of the service can be managed from service config page. Any changes made through the Service Config page does not reflect in the content policy.

• The service is disabled in the Policy or Group page of CCM and the policy status changes to Partial. The policy can be published with a disabled service. However, the policy state always remains Partial. Publishing a policy will affect only the services that are enabled for CCM.

  Note: When a service, which is part of a group, is added back to CCM, the policy status changes to “Unpublished”.
