FactoryTalk Historian Security
FactoryTalk Historian ProcessBook is designed to support whatever
FactoryTalk Historian Security is configured on the FactoryTalk Historian
server.
1. When attempting to connect to a FactoryTalk Historian server, the
application first attempts to pass your FactoryTalk Security/Windows
log in credentials. The PI SDK will try to use them directly or find a
Trust for the user, domain, application or machine (per Trust
configurations).
2. If all attempts to login to the FactoryTalk Historian server using
FactoryTalk Security/Windows credentials or other machine-related
information fail, then you must have a FactoryTalk Historian ME
native security user account (not FactoryTalk Security/Windows
security-based). In this case, the PI SDK attempts to use the native
FactoryTalk Historian ME user account configured for the server.
3. If the default native FactoryTalk Historian ME user account does not
require a password, then you are automatically logged in. If the default
account does require a password, a login dialog box appears, which
expects the native FactoryTalk Historian ME user account and
password.
For more detailed information on FactoryTalk Historian server security, see
the FactoryTalk Historian SE Installation and Configuration Guide , shipped with the
FactoryTalk Historian server.
Network Errors
Network Errors update the Status Report (page 226) dialog box, rather
than displaying error messages on your monitor. When a display is opened
but the server is not available, only one Select New Node (page 9) dialog
box appears. The dialog box appears once for each server that is not
available.
