Perform end of batch archiving

Selecting
Archiver (End of Batch)
 defers control of batch reporting to
FactoryTalk Event Archiver
 and only performs batch reporting upon removal of the batch from the Batch List. The End of Batch runs in the security context of the
FactoryTalk Batch
 Server. When using End of Batch archiving,
FactoryTalk Event Archiver
 must be disabled as a Windows service and cannot be controlled using the
FactoryTalk Batch
 Service Manager. (See the
FactoryTalk Event Archiver
 User Guide
 for information on disabling
FactoryTalk Event Archiver
 as a service.)
TIP:
If Event Journal Signatures are enabled, specify
Archiver (End-of-Batch)
 archiving to ensure that all event journal records are properly archived.
To perform end of batch archiving
:
  1. Select
    Archiver (End of Batch)
    .
  2. In the
    Archiver
     area, select
    Delete files after archive
     to allow deletion of the .
    evt
    or
    .evtj
     files after
    FactoryTalk Event Archiver
     has stored the data in the ODBC database.
    IMPORTANT:
    Deleting files after archiving is not a reversible action and is not recommended.
  3. In
    Table Name
    , type the name of the table that contains the Batch data. The default is
    BATCHHIS
    .
  4. In
    Database Connect String
     enter either:
    • ODBC;DSN=DataSourceName;
    • ODBC;
      .
      TIP:
      If the DSN is not specified the first time
      FactoryTalk Event Archiver
       is started the
      FactoryTalk Event Archiver
       setup will determine the connection string and automatically update this value.
To change the default
Table Name
 from
BATCHHIS
:
  1. Create a new table.
  2. Update the stored procedure named
    BHInsert
     to use the new table name. (See the
    FactoryTalk Event Archiver
     User Guide
    for instructions on creating a new table.)
