[ISS Support Case] AVEVA WSP Configuration Assistance

Description

I am a bit confused with the installation of the Aveva suite. Our implementation is so miniscule compared to the vast capabilities of the Aveva 2023 platform. We have one instance of InTouch 10.0 running one instance of FSGateway/DAServer, connecting to one instance of Opto22 OPC server. And thats it. When I start the Aveva 2023 installation, I am completely uncertain as to the components that I need to install that will resemble and function as the current implementation does, without adding additional complexity. I know there will be some additional inherent capabilities, and complexity with the new version so I just want to avoid anything that would be completely unnecessary. I have run through the first install selecting the following components: System Platform (PCS Runtime, and PCS Service Repository) This seems to be a default selection that cannot be omitted InTouch and all of its components Historian with all of its components Application Server (just the bootstrap), also one which wont let me omit Enterprise Licensing Communications Driver Packs (Internal-SIM, and Standards-Gateway) System Monitor (Agent Install Manager) Running through the post-install configuration was a bit challenging. When looking at the System Management Server configuration choices, I selected No System Management Server, although it is indicated in BOLD as not recommended. I chose this as there are no other Aveva nodes, or platforms in our topology.
