Migrate Displays to Another Historian Server
When you want to use an existing tag with a different Historian Server,
FactoryTalk Historian ActiveView attempts to locate the correct tags.
Beginning with PI SDK 1.3.6, when you use a ProcessBook symbol with a
Historian Server other than the one for which it was created, the Historian
Server is added automatically if it is discoverable on the network.
If the Historian Server is not discoverable, then FactoryTalk Historian
ActiveView prompts you to select a new Historian Server. Once the new
Historian Server is selected, FactoryTalk Historian ActiveView searches
the database for a matching tag ID.
 If a match is found, FactoryTalk Historian ActiveView retrieves the
tag name associated with the tag ID and compares the tag name with
the saved tag name.
 If the tag names are the same, the value is shown in the entry.
 If the tag names are different, FactoryTalk Historian ActiveView
searches the database for the tag ID of the saved tag name. If a match
is found, the value is shown in the entry.
 If a match is not found, FactoryTalk Historian ActiveView uses the tag
ID saved with the ActiveView regardless of the different tag names.
 If no tag ID or tag name is found in the database, FactoryTalk
Historian ActiveView displays a message informing you of the
missing tag.
This behavior is governed by the value of PB2TagResolution, located in
the Data Manager section of acview.ini (page 45). PB2TagResolution can
take the following values:
