Setting up an standby I/O server

Question

In setting up an I/O server how do you transfer config to a standby I/O server ? 
 Have setup all the comms drivers using OMOC, thinking I export config and open in standby ?

Hi David, Configuration can be 'saved' in OCMC, by right clicking on the Configuration node of that driver. This will save the configuration file in the dedicated folder for that driver, (default C:\ProgramData\Wonderware\OI-Server\$Operations Integration Supervisory Servers$\\\.AAcfg ) If you move that file to your standby server, placing it in the same folder, then you are able to load that configuration using the same method, selecting the configuration set of your choice. It is also possible to move and overwrite the default AAcfg files named using the driver name in the file name. (in this case ABCIP.AAcfg) I hope this helps! From FAQ on the support site. https://softwaresupportsp.aveva.com/#/knowledgebase/details/000023327?lang=en_us OI Server Configuration Files Since each OI Server instance can have a unique configuration, the configuration file folder structure has been revised in newer versions. Configuration files are now located in the following location by default: C:\ProgramData\Wonderware\OI-Server\$Operations Integration Supervisory Servers$\\\.AAcfg Figure 8: Example configuration file for MBTCP instance named 'OI.MBTCP_P1' If you want to move this configuration file to another node and need the application name to remain the same (such as in a redundant pair configuration), you must first manually create OI Server instances with the same names as the original node. This is a limitation of ProgID creation and other required registry keys and file folders that are created when instances are created. Once the instances are created, then the configuration files can be copied in to the corresponding locations.
