Server is closed.The
Server
area options include:Item | Definition |
|---|---|
Allow Demo Mode | The FactoryTalk Batch Server runs with full functionality without a license for a two-hour period.
After two hours, the server stops running. |
Allow Grace Period | The FactoryTalk Batch Server starts when a valid activation is not found. The grace period is seven
days, after which a valid FactoryTalk Batch Activation license is required. |
Cold Boot | The FactoryTalk Batch Server starts in a completely initialized condition. All restart data is erased
and all recipe content is removed from the Batch List. |
Warm Boot | The FactoryTalk Batch Server starts and attempts to restore the set of batches that were on the batch
list when the server previously terminated. The restart files are altered so only
one warm restart may be attempted. |
Warm All Boot | Restarts the FactoryTalk Batch Server only if it is able to restore all of the batches to the batch list.
Restart does not alter the restart files so another warm-all or warm restart may
be attempted. This is the default setting for automatic restarts. |
Verify/Deploy Area Model | Opens the Verify/Deploy Area Model dialog box. |
Server Details | Opens the Batch Server Details dialog box. |
