Miscellaneous Tab
You can use the Miscellaneous tab to configure the following settings for the server:
Define how often ClearSCADA attempts to update the servers in the server arrangement (Hot-Standby Pair, Triple Standby, etc.). If you need to define different update intervals for the servers, perhaps due to different connection speeds, you can achieve this by using the Interleave setting on the Standby (or Permanent Standby) tab. For more information, see Define the Transfer Interval and Transfer Timeouts.
ATTENTION: Leave the default Transfer Interval setting of 5 in place unless a Schneider Electric engineer instructs you to make a change. Incorrect use of the Transfer Interval setting can cause slow system performance.
Define what action a Standby server should take if it loses its connection to the other server(s). For more information, see Define what Action Should be Taken when a Server Becomes Isolated.
Define what action a server should take after a network connection is restored to an isolated Main server. For more information, see Define what Action Should be Taken when a Server Becomes Isolated.
Define whether the server becomes Main in preference to other servers in Main-Main or Main-Main-Main situations (see Define the Server’s Arbitration Priority).
Define the maximum amount of time for which no activity from the remote server will indicate a lost connection. ClearSCADA will use this timeout to determine if there is complete inactivity on a link. If there is complete inactivity, ClearSCADA will shut down the link (see Multi-Server Connection Poll Requests).
Define the amount of time for which the server stores modified historic data (see Define the Server’s Historic Modified and Annotation Life Settings)
Define the amount of time for which the server stores annotation data (see Define the Server’s Historic Modified and Annotation Life Settings).
