Echelon IzoT Commissioning Tool - Manual (Page 267)

• Unreferenced connection descriptions. Connection descriptions that have been created but do
not have any corresponding connections are not created in the destination network.
• User profiles. User profiles in the source network are not created in the destination network.
• Non IzoT Commissioning Tool extension records. Non IzoT Commissioning Tool extension
records will only be copied if you selected the Enable Configuration Properties check box the
Network Properties: Configuration Properties options category, and the extension record is
marked for copying
Merging IzoT Commissioning Tool Networks
To merge two IzoT Commissioning Tool networks, follow these steps:
1. Identify the source and destination networks. The supernodes, subsystems, devices, functional
blocks, and connections in the source network are added to the destination network. The devices
in the destination network are not modified.
2. Back up the source IzoT Commissioning Tool network design following the steps in Manually
Backing Up an IzoT Commissioning Tool Network Design in this chapter. You can use the backup
to restore the network if the merge process fails for any reason. You can also use it to restore the
network if you later choose not to merge the networks after running the pre-merge utility.
In the event that you do not merge the networks after running the pre-merge utility in the source
network, restore the IzoT Commissioning Tool backup file. This is because the pre-merge utility
adds significant data to the OpenLNS CT drawing that will degrade the performance of the
network database.
3. Open the source IzoT Commissioning Tool network design following the steps described in
Opening an IzoT Commissioning Tool Network Design in Chapter 3, Getting Started.
4. Click Add-ins, point to Synchronization, and then click Database Merge Export Utility. The
Merge Export Utility dialog box opens.
The merge export utility prepares the network to be merged into another network. The utility adds
data from the source OpenLNS network database to the source OpenLNS CT drawing.
