Rockwell Automation 57C620 AutoMax Programming Executive Version 3.8 - Manual (Page 95)

5Ć39 Using the System Configurator
If any UDC modules exist in the destination rack, you will be
prompted for which operating systems to erase (AutoMax or UDC).
The warning Erase UDC OS before AutoMax OS when erasing all
Processors" will be displayed with the prompt. You can choose to
erase either the OSs on all Processors in the rack or the OS for a
UDC module in the slot you designate. If you want to delete the
operating systems for all AutoMax Processors and UDC modules in
the rack, you must delete the UDC OSs first.
5.4.5 Repairing Databases
In some cases, the Programming Executive will display an error
message which states that the database index files do not match the
database files. This should not occur during normal operation.
Usually, this error occurs if the database files have been changed
without using the Programming Executive or if a Programming
Executive operation was interrupted by turning off the personal
computer. This message will instruct you to use the Repair System
Databases or Repair Rack Databases command. These
commands will reĆindex all index files for the selected system or
selected rack, respectively.
