Re: [foxboro] AIM problems

I believe that if you move AIM* from one machine to another that you
will have to call Foxboro and new licenses. I think it have something to
do with MAC address. At least anytime that we have changed boxes we had
to get new licenses.

As long as the AIM historian name stays the same copying the
/opt/aim/inst/<HISTNAME> directory
to the other machine should be enough. Assuming that the platform is the
same. I never tried
moving an AIM database from unix to windows or vice-versa.=3D20

Changing the AIM historian name is probably a bad idea, since the name
is used in several places inside
the configuration files.=3D20

If you just want to move your existing AIM database to a new or
re-installed HD all that is needed
is a backup of the /opt/aim/inst/<HISTNAME> directory. That directory
contains all the
point configuration and database info that AIM needs.

So the steps to take after re-installing the AW are:
1: install AIM,
2: put the an_init.* and aimapi.cfg files back in /opt/aim/bin (these
contain license info and api tuning),
3: put the /opt/aim/inst/<HISTNAME> directory back from a backup tape,
4: check in the AIM histmanager to automatically start on reboot and
reboot the machine.
