Example: Reusing Archive Configuration Files

In this example, you have a production Historian with a machine name "WaterSite" and want to load that configuration on a testbed Historian called "LabSite1". The testbed Historian is already running and already has a config file called "LabSite1_CentralConfig.ihc."

Do the following:
  1. Stop the services and delete LabSite1_CentralConfig.ihc.
  2. Rename WaterSite_CentralConfig.ihc to LabSite1_CentralConfig.ihc.
  3. At the command line, run the following:
    ihConfigManager_x64.exe RenameDHSNode WaterSite LabSite1
