Re: foxpai.cfg and fastest_rsr
There is a brief description of "fastest_rsr" in the QF990084 and how you can change
it. I have used this variable with FoxAPI. The deafult value is 1 (means 1/2 seconds),
every steps means 1/2 sec, i.e., if fastest_rsr = 10, that means 5 seconds. I am not

I am familiar with the Legacy Historian but I was recently at a plant where
they had the new AIM* Historian. It was installed on a Sun machine. I
really like the fact that you can change its configuration without shutting
it down. This allowed us to tighten many deadbands specifically for the

Re: fastest_rsr
I believe that parameter of the same name is in the AIM*API file. By
default, it forces all updates to 0.5 second scans regardless of the
recording rate set in the historian. I suspect that this is most of your
load.
Re: Obtaining the Solaris Configurator
You should contact you
We have migrated our legacy historian several times using saveh50 and
loadh50. It actually works pretty well.
The saveh50 utility unloads the Informix data and table structure to a
series of sql scripts and files of ascii data. There is not a lot of
interaction once the process starts. It ta

We have configured most flows to update at 10 seconds, and most everything
else to update at 30 seconds, with change deltas of 0.1% of engineering
units. I wish there was a way to configure deltas as percent of actual
observed range, like the Biles AIM product used to have. That would rea
Re: Loading
The load is proportional to the number of changes and the update rates.
What is your setting for fastest_rsr in /opt/fox/ais/bin/foxapi.cfg? This
controls how often updates are sent from the CP to the historian.
How do you change deltas now compare with the ones then?
Re: You
And now a customer perspective...
Pros of AIM*Historian:
1. You can modify it while it is running.
2. You can run it on the NT platform as well as AW51, and you can set
up remote collectors on both NT and Unix platforms.
3. Much better archiving and storage tools.
4. Reasonab
You should give consideration to moving to AIM*. It contains migration
utilities that preserve the customer's data and configuration information.

Hi,
Is anyone of you already experienced with an upgrade of a Legacy historian?
Customer needs to make larger his historian, from 500 to 1000 points
without loosing his preexisting configuration.
Do the saveh50 and loadh50 utilities allow this?
Step by step:
-saveh50
-recommit with new historian
Hafedh:
I recommend having your system upgraded to version 6.1.2 (release update).
I have recently observed a similar issue at another site.
Installing 6.1.2 fixed the problem at that site.
After the upgrade verify that your CP40 style "A" processor is at EPROM ver.

John,
Since 1999 we have version 6.1.1.
