Creating a Trust Connection with FactoryTalk Historian
SE or PI Server
Setting up trust connections between FactoryTalk Historian ME and the FactoryTalk
Historian SE or PI server is required for Data Transfer. As a prerequisite for
FactoryTalk Historian SE, you will also need to assign FactoryTalk Activation
licenses to support the FTMS point source. For PI server, you must ensure that you
have enough licensed points available for data transfer. Activation licenses are
assigned for FactoryTalk Historian SE in the FactoryTalk Administration Console (on
the Client Tools CD shipped with your FactoryTalk Historian ME).
First, depending on whether you will be using FactoryTalk Historian SE or PI server
as your data transfer server, log into the FactoryTalk Historian SE or PI System
Management Tools (SMT) application and set up two trust connections in the
FactoryTalk Historian SE server or PI server:
„
datatransfer trust
„
webs trust
Refer to the FactoryTalk Activation online help for more information about activation.
From the Windows Start menu: Start > All Programs > Rockwell Software >
FactoryTalk Activation> FactoryTalk Activation Tool.
