Alarm Destination Options

The Alarm Destination Options dialog box has three sections:
  • Historian Server Options
  • Logfile Options
  • Time Options

Historian Server Options

OptionDescription
Historian ServerThe server name of the Historian server you wish to migrate the iFIX alarm and event data to.
Historian UsernameThe username required to authenticate with the Historian server.
Historian PasswordThe password required to authenticate with the Historian server.

Logfile Options

OptionDescription
Logfile LocationModify the location of the iFIXAlmMigration.Log file.
Overwrite LogfileSet whether or not the log file gets overwritten with each migration. By default, there is one log file (iFIXAlmMigration.Log) that is appended each time you migrate alarms. Clearing this option causes the iFIX Alarm Migration Utility to overwrite the log file each time you migrate alarms.

Time Options

OptionDescription
Treat as DST timestamp If enabled, the migration utility will treat all timestamps as if they are Daylight Savings Time.
