Description

Aveva System Platform 2023 includes a new feature to re-index the links which reference the data within the History Blocks. Prior to this release, the process to re-index was a series of manual steps. There are several reasons why the index may require it to be rebuilt. This process simplifies the re-indexing process. Note: this information can also be found in the Historian Administration Guide (2023 release) on pages 172-173.

Step 4: Click on the "Rebuild Index" button to initiate the process of re-indexing the links to the data blocks.
