Re: [foxboro] Conectivity between nodes

Andreas,

A fairly straightforward way around this is to host CSA on a workstation 
that is not a control station host and doesn't have a historian. 
Backups can be limited to an initial backup when the machine is built, 
and then just backup graphics and CSA without shuting the machine down.
