Replicate runtime changes manually

At runtime, you can change the HMI project components in an application while it is running. For example, you can add, modify or delete graphic displays and other components, and have those changes to take effect at connected clients.
TIP:
Make sure to verify the current HMI server name and status before the replication.
To replicate changes manually:
  1. In the
    FactoryTalk View Studio
     Explorer window, right-click the HMI server and select
    Server Status
    .
  2. In the
    Server Status
     dialog box, verify that the current HMI server status is
    Active
    and the other is
    Standby
    .
    TIP:
    To show the status of the HMI servers, FactoryTalk Alarms and Events servers, and data servers at runtime, add one of the following to the application:
    • A
      Server Status
       display under the
      Library
      folder.
    • A redundancy function, such as
      PrimaryServerStatus
      and
      SecondaryServerStatus
      .
  3. In the HMI Server Properties dialog box, in the
    Redundancy
    tab, click
    Replicate Active to Standby
    .
