Rockwell Automation Publication HSE-IN024A-EN-E–December 2012

The services are removed when you delete the interface instances in
FactoryTalk Administration Console.

NOTE

If you want to take advantage of the buffering feature, Rockwell
Automation recommends that you install the FactoryTalk Historian Live

Data Interface on a remote computer, typically the computer where the
data server is installed.

The buffering subsystem stores time-series values to memory when
the remote interface computer cannot communicate with the
FactoryTalk Historian SE server.

NOTE

FactoryTalk Historian SE supports the PI Buffer Subsystem only. It does
not support the API Buffer Subsystem.

To enable buffering on the computer with the FactoryTalk
Historian Live Data Interface installed:

1. Go to

Start > All Programs > Rockwell Software > FactoryTalk

Historian SE System Management Tools. The System
Management Tools
dialog box appears.

2. From the menu bar, select File > Connections. The

Connection Manager dialog box appears.

3. Select the FactoryTalk Historian SE server to which you want

to connect.
If the server name is not listed, do the following:

1. From the menu bar, select Server > Add Server. The Add

Server dialog box appears.

2. In the Network Node text box, type the fully qualified

domain name (FQDN) of the server.

3. Clear the Confirm check box, and click OK. The new

server is added to the server list.
This allows a remote client connection to be established

with the FactoryTalk Historian SE server.
