Issue
Alarms in UNC are not archiving to the Enterprise Server.
Environment
I/A Series R2
Universal Network Controller (UNC) and Enterprise Server
Cause
The UNC station and Enterprise Server station has their NotificationService 'archiveMode' property set to 'archive_disabled'. This is the default selection and it prevents notification from happening.
Resolution
Change the default settings in the UNC station and Enterprise Server:
- Set the UNC station's NotificationService 'archiveMode' to 'archive_remote'.
- Set the Enterprise Server station's NotificationService 'archiveMode' to 'archive_local'. (The “archive_local” selection is valid only if the station is running the DatabaseService)
The following have to be also correct in order for alarms archiving to happen:
- AddressBook entries should be properly setup in the Enterprise Server and UNC stations. Refer to Page 1-15 and 1-16 of the Niagara Standard Programming Reference for further information.
- Supervisor checkbox in the UNC's NotificationService 'alarmArchiveAddress' property should be checked.
- NotificationClass(s) in the NotificationService container in both the UNC station and the Enterprise Server station have to be the same.
