When the shadowing is ready, and the backup creation command has been executed,
it shows the following message, "Shadowing is ready. Backup will be created by
operating system".
This means that this tool does not have any connection to the creation of the backup,
which is normally made by the operating system tools like Windows Backup.
In the lower part of the tool dialog, there is an info bar, which shows different
system messages. One of the fields shows when the last backup has been made.
During the installation, the standard template file, sys_bascon.bck, to be used
together with online backup functionality is installed into the \sys\active\sys_ folder.
3.5.15.2. Configuring Backup Tool
The configuration of Backup Tool requires the following steps:
1. Stop MicroSCADA
2. Copy the Sys_Bascon.bck to be the Sys_Bascon.com. The following definitions
in Sys_Bascon.com are important for the shadowing and backup procedures. See
Sys_bascon.bck in \sys\active\sys_ folder.
3. Define the system node name, main application name and application numbers.
Normally the main and watchdog application can be the same.
@SYSTEM = "SYS_A ; System node name or TCP/IP address
@APL_NAME = "TUTOR" ; Name of main application
@APL_NUMS = (1,1,3) ; Application numbers in the following order:
(Main, Watch-dog, Backup), application number must be <= 10
Base system shadowing must be set in use:
#CREATE SYS:B = List(-
SA = 209,- ; Station address of base system
ND = 9,- ; Node number of base system
SH = 1,- ; SHADOWING ENABLED
DN = 1,- ; Default NET node number
...
LAN link is needed:
#CREATE LIN:V = LIST(- ; Link to other SYS or LAN frontend (requires
TCP/IP)
LT = "LAN") ; Link type
#CREATE LIN2:B = %LIN
Base system node is needed:
#CREATE NOD:V = LIST(- ; Node for Base System
NN = %System,-
LI = 2,-
SA = 209)
#CREATE NOD9:B = %NOD
*
Main and watchdog applications must have at least 2 parallel queues.
*
Main and backup applications must have the shadowing attributes defined
correctly.
