Rick,
Re: My biggest issue was that with their attempt at version control you
can =
only have one engineer busy in your database at any one time.
For good or bad, this is exactly what the ICC does.
Re: They have advised building a number of databases - one for each
plant
area - this would allow you to have a number of engineers working
of
different CP's. All good and well, but then the plant areas are
invisible to each other from within each of the databases.
This situation is the same as the ICC.
Re: Far cry from the good ol' Solaris/Unix platform where every station
could be in ICC at the same time as long as they were looking at
different CP's. =
I don't get it. With one CP per database you have what the ICC does. If
you like the ICC, you should like IACC setup in this manner.
The grouping of CPs into one database is not a requirement and, if it's
not convenient, not done.
The IEE is getting closer since it allows multiple people in the
database, the database is larger, and if properly configured you can
have more than one database on the Mesh network. The databases won't see
each other so p2p points between IEE databases (Galaxies) have to be
typed in, but this is still closer to correct.
