To configure miscellaneous
FactoryTalk Batch
 Server properties
  1. Open
    FactoryTalk Administration Console
     and sign in to the
    FactoryTalk
     Network Directory.
  2. In
    FactoryTalk Administration Console
    Explorer
    , do one of the following:
    • For a new
      FactoryTalk Batch
       Server, right-click the application or the area name and select
      Add New Server
      FactoryTalk Batch Server
      .
    • For an existing
      FactoryTalk Batch
       Server, expand the application or the area name, right-click the server, and select
      Properties
      .
  3. In the
    FactoryTalk Batch Services Properties
     dialog, select the
    General
     or
    Secondary Server
     tab.
  4. In the

     area, fill in the following fields:
    Miscellaneous settings
    Setting
    Description
    Maximum log file size (MB)
    The primary
    FactoryTalk Batch
     Server logs activities to a log file (
    Batchsvr.log
    ). This required field defines the maximum size (in megabytes) of the log file. When the log file reaches maximum size, the log acts in a circular manner, with new records overwriting the oldest records.
    This field has a minimum integer value of 1 and a maximum integer value of 1,024. The default value is
    10
     MB.
    Minimum disk space (MB)
    This required field defines the minimum disk space (in MB) that must be available before a batch can be added to the
    BatchList
    . Adequate disk space helps prevent data loss.
    This field has a minimum integer value of 1 and a maximum integer value of 1,024. The default value is
    1
     MB.
    Maximum number of items to verify in parallel
    From the
    FactoryTalk Batch Service Manager
    , you can issue a runtime command to the primary
    FactoryTalk Batch
     Server to verify tags in the area model. Because attempting to verify all the tags simultaneously can put a large load on the data servers supporting those tags, and the customer could be running batches, by default the command verifies one tag at a time.
    This required field allows you to increase the number of tags that the command verifies at the same time, up to a maximum integer value of 30. The default value is
    1
    .
    Minimum free virtual memory (MB)
    This required field defines the minimum amount of virtual memory (in MB) that must be available before the primary
    FactoryTalk Batch
     Server will allow batch creation. Adequate memory helps prevent
    FactoryTalk Batch
     Server crashes.
    This field has a minimum integer value of 102 and a maximum integer value of 3,840. The default value is
    512
     MB.
