Read More[ISS Support Case] Historian Data Gap On Appengine Failover In SP Version 2023 R2 P1
I am seeing an issue with SP2023 R2 P1 related to appengine failovers. When I cause an appengine failover, data (primarily analog) has a gap in the trend until the data changes. Sometimes the gap stays but sometimes the gap is "filled" in for some reason. I'm having a bit of a consistency issue trying to replicate this problem. Every time I cause a failover, the results are slightly different but I do see bad results. To demonstrate this, I created two videos to show what I'm seeing. If someone can create a problem ticket and reach out to me, I can forward the videos to InSource to show what I'm seeing.

Tech Alert 000045875 was briefly available on the GCS site and described an issue with a set of .NET updates but has since been pulled. Client has observed intermittent issues when those updates are in place. Extensive testing has been done and they are not using the .NET methods outlined in the article. With those updates in place creating a new galaxy from the 'Blank Galaxy' template results in an occasional error message from PackageServerNet (Access Denied) which is an indication 'the problem' exists. Once the galaxy is created, the GR node sometimes won't deploy or if it does deploy, sometimes the logger will explode with errors/warnings. Finally there are times the platform will deploy fine with no apparent issue. Applying the fix in the article does resolve the issue (based on the messages in the logger). Client has follow up questions.

Direct Email: wanted to provide feedback on the below regarding downgrade of the CDP 2023 R2 to CDP 2023 when upgrading to System Platform 2023 R2. I followed the steps below to uninstall CDP 2023 R2 and then attempted to install CDP 2023. At the prerequisites screen I received the following message that .NET 6.0.5 was unable to be installed. Upon checking it looks like CDP 2023 R2 already installs .NET 6.0.25 and it did not allow the earlier version to be installed. I could not continue the installation until I manually uninstalled all the .NET 6.0.25 components. After doing this, the CDP 2023 install worked as expected and initial look it appears to be functional. My questions are: 1) Is this the expected behavior for this downgrade? 2) Will uninstalling the later .NET 6.0.25 cause any other issues with the System Platform install?

This platform connects to an XP vm running FS Gateway and Opto22 OPC server. This setup works well, but we need to get away from XP. We have set up a new Windows 10 vm and have installed Opto22 OPC Server, and Aveva 2023 version of License Manager, Historian, and OI Gateway to replace the XP platform. The View application on the Windows 10 View Application platform can not "see" the tags from the new OPC server platform, although the Historian can see them in the Operations Manager under Data Acquisition. Under the OI.GATEWAY3 OPC group, there is no trace of the tags. I am not sure if we are missing a component that needs to be installed, or if we have not configured it correctly.

Read More[ISS Support Case] Issue Deploying ViewApp
Client reached out as he was neither able to deploy/undeploy ViewApp. The ViewApp was stuck in data synchronization status (orange Indicator). I attempted to undeploy both with/without "Marked as Undeployed When Failure" checked. but it continued to fail and was showing as deployed. I attempted this on each level. (Winplatform, ViewEngine,ViewApp) When attempting on ViewApp error message stated that previous deployment had not been completed. Each of these attempts was unsuccessful so I requested the user shut down the target node which allowed me to undeploy the platform and then unassign the ViewEngine and ViewApp to troubleshoot them separately. Once they were separated when trying to deploy Winplatform received error message about Platform ID mismatch so I exported the platform and then deleted it and created a new one. After this I attempted to deploy the Winplatform and received error: "Unable to Deploy Platform - Failed to get bootstrap's version" Requested that client put in port allowances for ports in the range 49152 to 65535 and Bootstrap.exe. (support article 000035913) Confirmed pings between GR node and target node as well as correct PC name being used in configuration. After this attempted to deploy Winplatform again which led to this error: "Error Failed to deploy Winplatform : The installations version is different from the one in the remote node." Checked versions and Application Server Version on GR node was 10.6.002 and target node was 10.1 so updated target node to same patch version and the same error message persisted.

Read More[ISS Support Case] Some items not resolving in OMI when GR node down
When the GR Node is down, when you bring up OMI and look at some screens, items are not resolving to the underlying objects. The thing is, some screens/items resolve fine and some don't. Based on my experimenting, I think if you look at items prior to the GR Node being unavailable, then they can still be seen after the GR Node goes down. But, if you are looking at items which weren't viewed prior to the GR Node going down then those items won't get resolved to the underlying objects causing loss of data on the screen. I'm guessing when you access something it is cached somewhere on the system so the OMI screens know where to retrieve data from when the GR Node is down. But if you never visit a page within OMI, that information cannot be cached so the screens don't know how to get the data since the GR Node is down and can't help. We are moving to implement SP2023 in the near future. This needs to be reviewed and assigned a high priority level.

Read More[ISS Support Case] Failure to Write to Tag Topserver
This is a brand-new tag/attribute. It represents a command to tell a GE 800 (Commend Intercom System) to dial and connect a remote intercom station to a master station. The GE 800 takes care of the leg work of the connection but listens for the commands. The GE 800 has a proprietary protocol call ComADAPT which requires the user to purchase a separate software server (i.e. middleman software) called ComOPC which allows us to interface indirectly with the GE 800 with OPC UA. For us to communicate with the middleman software via OPC UA, we must use TOP Server since the built-in Application Server OPC DI object only supports OPC DA. Thus, we must use the suitelink object to communicate with TOP Server which communicates with ComOPC with OPC UA. I was able to send the command perfectly (the same item name) using a standalone OPC UA client like dOPC Explorer (OPC Free and Freeware Downloads from Kassl) and the TOP Server quick client too. That narrows down where the issue might be.

The PLC status for this project has extensive use (58 PLCs) in all the plant control panels, and they will be displayed on the SCADA in the touch Managed Application. We are using Archestra graphics and would like to use the Schneider Ecoxtrructure PLC graphics to display the status of the PLC. Since the Modules are numbered in a different order because of their position in the rack, we need to get a PNG image of the rack to show the device and add the status on top of it. How can I export the graphic from Control Expert and use it in Archestra (No image)? Does Aveva has a library for that in Wonderware? Do you have any suggestions? Thank you

The application is not reflecting the changes made on the development note. This sounds like there may be an issue with the process hes using to back up the application on the NAS and that in touch isnt fully getting the new back up with the changes made on the development note I spoke with the customer and asked is the remote note not set up to receive the updates from the development note automatically he said no that that is not something theyre interested in doing. I recommended trying to place the old application in a new folder removing the path thats in the InTouch, application manager, and browsing for the new application with the development updates to see if those changes are reflected, when launching the application. The changes did not display. I requested a screen recording of the process hes taking and Ill be checking to see if this is way is supported by Aveva

Successfully got galaxy and MES migrated from 2014R2SP1P02 to 2017U3 on an AVEVA Integration Studio intermediate image. No warning or errors. Then tried to create a CAB file from that galaxy and bring into 2020R2 (yuck-no go, still hundreds of errors) Then tried to export all of the objects and graphics that are needed and then create a clean image import 3 sLIB files o aaFactMES.aaSLIB o aaMES.aaSLIB o FactMES.Controls.Utilization.aaSLIB Then import the graphics (including MES DT and button bar controls from the 2017 U3 objects) Then import the bulk of the objects last This process produces the least amount of errors, but still produces them. Some questions: 1. Should I get new sLIB files instead of bringing the ones over from 2017? a. If so, where do I get them? 2. Same questions as above with the MES graphics a. The MES component graphics seem to be problematic b. Should I replace the graphics in 2017 intermediate with new MES graphics? c. When I bring the exported graphic objects into the new 2020R2 galaxy, there are multiple errors and the eventual objects are blank (no graphics) 3. Then when I bring in the big object import, it has problems with the missing graphics from step 2 Going to try a clean, new galaxy this morning and then wait to do step 1 until we communicate further.

In our current case, AVEVA Historian 2020 R2 is already installed on the machine we are trying to connect to Insight. 2. AVEVA Historian is installed on a different node than our GR Node, where Application Server is installed. The Historian node is where we are trying to connect Insight to the Historian. Do the registry edits need to be made before AVEVA Historian is installed on that node as well? a.

The customer, using AVEVA Application Server 2014 R2 on Windows Server 2012, reported an issue while configuring graphic animations involving string value display formatting. Specifically, they were working with a graphic that displays a numeric value derived from a tag (of type REAL) and wanted to display the value along with its engineering units, formatted to two decimal places. Within the graphic animation's value display configuration, the customer selected the String option in the State Options and attempted to construct the string using the recommended syntax from AVEVA, which typically follows this structure: StringFromReal(Value, IntegerPrecision, StringType) + " " + EngineeringUnits However, the customer initially used the following format: StringFromReal(Value, 0.00, StringType) + " " + EngineeringUnits This produced a runtime display showing the correct value and units, but with more decimal places than desiredthe customer wanted to limit the display to exactly two decimal places.

Weve created some more monitoring on our side to troubleshoot the stale data issue. Looks like we found the problem but wanted to run it by you guys for the why. After Windows OS patching (and maybe other activities that drive high CPU utilization), when we reboot the application server the RDIs lockup. See screen shot below. IO_A is the active DI and has updated data. But, for whatever reason the RDI wont pass that data along. Redeploying the RDI resyncs everything and wakes up the RDI. Everything was healthy with the RDI no alarms, primary DI was active and both primary and secondary DI statuses were Connected. No indication that it had stale data and was not updating. So, we have a resolution, but no root cause. blank is v2020R2, but we are seeing this issue everywhere. It doesnt look like its limited to a specific version.

Read More[ISS Support Case] Alarm Client
The alarm client graphic does not display alarms outside of prioriy 1 Tested in active X control client for historical alarms and it works. logs alarms and events in new version 2023 but not in 2017 Issue Summary: Customer reported that the Alarm Client graphic within the InTouch HMI is not displaying alarms outside of Priority 1. The expectation is to see alarms across a broader range of priorities (e.g., 1999), but only Priority 1 alarms are being rendered by the default Alarm Client graphic. Troubleshooting Steps Performed: Script Validation and Elimination: Reviewed and validated all associated scripts for the Alarm Client graphic. Disabled all scripts temporarily to eliminate the possibility of script interference impacting the alarm display. Configuration Review: Verified that all custom properties and connection parameters for the Alarm Client graphic were properly configured and not filtering or restricting alarms by priority. Controlled Test Setup: Created a new test window within InTouch to eliminate legacy or hidden configurations. Added: A default Alarm Client graphic. An ActiveX Alarm Control for comparison. Ensured both controls had the most basic configuration with no script interactions. Behavior Observation: The Alarm Client graphic continued to show only Priority 1 alarms. The ActiveX Alarm Control correctly displayed alarms of various priorities, confirming that the alarm data was available and being delivered correctly from the system. Historian Data Verification: Accessed the SQL database via SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS). Queried the Historian to confirm the presence of alarms across a range of priorities (1999). Verified the accuracy of query syntax using reference documentation and observed that the data exists and is populated correctly. Documentation and Evidence: A screen recording has been created and is available, demonstrating: The tested behavior. Alarm Client configuration settings. Comparison between Alarm Client and ActiveX control. The presence of multi-priority alarms in the Historian.

Read More[ISS Support Case] WWCLIENT connection failure
The customer is experiencing issues with label printing functionality involving DDE communication between an InTouch application and a third-party program. The system operates correctly on Terminal Server A, but there is an intermittent failure when transferring Packer information used for label generation. The issue appears to be related to DDE linkage between InTouch and the external labeling system, particularly when changing packers and launching the third-party app. Everything currently works fine on Terminal Server A. The application in question is live and used in a production environment. The problem occurs during the label printing process when users change packers. A third-party application is launched, and Packer number information (entered in InTouch) is sent to the third-party application using DDE. This data is then printed on the shipping labels. Current issue with the printer which is unrelated to the Packer data transfer issue but might be contributing to some confusion. The actual data field in InTouch related to Packer codes is manually populated for tracking who packed the pallet.

Q1: I can't find these attributes anywhere. 2.

The file seemed to have restored correctly, and I am able to open the IDE, but when I try to check-out and open an item, no configuration window appears. When I try to Undo Checkout, I get an error message stating that the object is being edited by DefaultUser, but I know this is not the case, because I am running Wonderware on a VM locally, and I am the only user logged into this VM (See Error 1 attachment). I was talking to a co-worker who has more experience with Wonderware, and we figured out that the GRNode was not deployed. When I attempt to deploy it thought, I get the error message in attachment Error 2. Since I got this back up from my customer, I think I need to change the computer name to be used with my VM, but I do not know how to do that.

Does this help with communications? I'm hoping since the DI object will be connected to the PLC already (since there is one on each platform now) IO will subscribe quicker.

Read More[ISS Support Case] Detecting CPU Utilization Within Application Server
I am looking for a way to detect and monitor total CPU utilization as in how busy is the systems CPU. Preferably, it would be nice if an object could have an attribute which held the % CPU utilization on the system it is currently running on. This could then be historized. Additionally, we could create an alarm off it as well. If CPU % went above 50% for more than 30 seconds than an alarm would be created as an example. You can look at the attributes of a platform in object viewer. You can see CPULoad and CPULoadAvg listed. After reviewing these, it appears these just show the information of the current CPU core the platform is running on and not the entire CPU utilization. The platforms have an 'Alarms' tab inside the IDE with a "Report Excess CPU load alarm" option. I suspect this only reports on the current CPU core the platform is running on and not the entire CPU. Is this possible to do?
