[ISS Support Case] Historian Client Installation Issue (missing CNA)
Last updated: March 7th, 2025Description
I have created a dummy Server2022 VM on my laptop to experiment with as well. I have the System Platform Installation Guide manual, as well as a few other items, although I havent read every last bit of it. A couple quick questions Im running into at the start of the process on my dummy VM: 1- The SP / Historian Installer does not see the SQL Server Express 2022 instance that I already have installed, that is with TCP/IP and Browsing services turned on. Any thoughts on what Im missing? 2- In terms of migrating the configuration of the old Historian to the new VM, I noticed that there is a configuration export tool that generates a text file on the legacy (WW Historian 2017) machine. I have also taken the step of creating a .bak backup of each WW Historian Database (Holding and Runtime) as well. Is it preferable to restore those databases into the new SQL Server Express? Or is it better to use the import tool when attempting to migrate to the new system? I am aware these are pretty elementary questions, and I continue to read through the docs, but I wanted to make a contact with you and get a ticket rolling, as I am sure I will have lots of questions for you in the coming weeks!
