Verify and deploy an updated area model using the FactoryTalk Batch Service Manager

To prepare an online area model for deployment, an operator can verify that changes made to the area model are permitted.
TIP:
You will be asked to login to FactoryTalk to perform this procedure.
You must be able to login with a user account that has been granted the
Configure Runtime Area Model Deployment
 permission in the product policy configuration stored in the FactoryTalk Directory>System\Policies\Product Policies\Batch\Feature Security location.
Members of the Administrator group have this permission by default.
Then, the operator can deploy changes to the runtime area model without having to stop the
FactoryTalk Batch
 Server. If the set of differences is permitted by the
FactoryTalk Batch
 Server, the updated area model is successfully deployed.
TIP: An area model can also be verified and deployed from the
FactoryTalk Batch Equipment Editor
. For more information, see the
FactoryTalk Batch Equipment Editor
 User Guide
.
