This is true if you run the configurators on the WP, but I'd recommend that you fire up a remote DM/FV session and run the configurators on the AW remotely. In that case, the files will be where they belong.

Riccardi Sent: Saturday, 12 January 2008 12:05 To: foxboro@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [foxboro] AW vs. WP in the UNIX world Folks, Consider a UNIX plant with a mix of AW/WP D & G boxes at V6.5 & V7.1 respectively, distributed across 6 distinct operating areas of the plant. Then consider a central engineering area with an AW where 98% of the configuration is performed on a daily basis. Now consider a decision to replace the engineering AW with a WP (don't even ask how this decision was made). What functionality, if any, do I give up if I lose the AW for a WP? Thanks. Joseph M.
