Deploy Galaxy Changes

In the previous steps, you configured a series of Galaxy attributes to be historized; however, Historian is not yet aware of the new attributes to be historized. The final configuration step is done automatically by the deployment process.

First, you will monitor the current status of your Historian to verify how many tags are being historized. Then, after deployment, you will monitor Historian again to compare the new status.

Step 75. In the SMC, in the left pane, select Status.

Step 76. In the right pane, look for the following items and take note of their values:

Note: This value will change depending on whether your installation was migrated from a previous version or if it is a new installation.

Step 77. Under Management Console, select Data Acquisition.

Notice the only existing topic is SysDrv!System, which corresponds to the System driver module collecting key variables and system performance counters from the Historian node.

Step 78. Expand Configuration Editor\System Configuration\Data Acquisition and select MDAS/ Manual Tags. Verify it is empty now, but after deployment, you will see the new historized tags here.
