FactoryTalk Batch Server option configuration

Configure the

FactoryTalk Batch

Server and

FactoryTalk Event Archiver

using the

Server Options

dialog box in

FactoryTalk Batch Equipment Editor

. The configuration information for the server indicates how it communicates with

FactoryTalk Batch

clients and the data server(s). Configure

FactoryTalk Event Archiver

to specify if and how electronic batch record files (

.evt

or

.evtj

) are inserted into the ODBC-compliant database.

Changing items such as

FactoryTalk Batch

Server information, area model, and the error logging directory take effect when the server is restarted. Changing items such as the recipe directory and batch journal directory take effect the next time the server accesses these items. None of the items in

FactoryTalk Event Archiver

configuration require the server to be restarted. These changes take effect the next time the server needs that configuration item.
