  Hi, everyone!   In previous tech tips, we’ve introduced 9.0’s biggest feature, active-active clustering, and covered some of the main architectural components. Today, I’ll cover some other architectural configurations and the flexibility that active-active clustering provides to meet your IoT deployment needs.   Deployment Flexibility With Active-Active Clustering, ThingWorx allows you to achieve the highest availability of your IIoT system while still retaining the high degree of deployment flexibility that ThingWorx is known for.   It’s important to emphasize flexibility not only in where you deploy ThingWorx, but also in how  you deploy it. Flexibility is embedded in the ThingWorx architecture to suit your deployment needs. Let’s look at two interesting options.   Cost-Efficient Deployment The first example is deploying ThingWorx in a cost-efficient architecture for smaller or cost-sensitive deployments. Instead of each component on its own separate

Hello, I'm doing the tutorial to build an Analytical Model. The steps are quick and easy and yet I've got an innacurate model at the end. Here is the dataset provided in the tutorial. I create a model with the basic configuration using all indicators with low_grease boolean as goal (same as the tutorial). I don't undestand what I'm doing wrong. Any clue?   Tutorial result :   My result :   Philippe

I am trying to install the most recent Thingworx 8.5 trial on a Windows 10 Pro Azure VM. The installer always fails with "A problem occurred during installation that may cause an unsuccessful installation. foundation Installation Failed" and then I get another message, "There has been an error. ThingWorx Foundation Trial for H2 installation failed. Please check the logs. The application will exit now." We've tried this install multiple times, with different developer accounts, both SSL and not, to no avail. Upon checking the logs, it looks like the install of the chef client failed (this happens every time). See below (also attached log files). I need this install to develop a POC for a customer, and cannot begin development until we can actually install the trial. Any help is appreciated.   "Executing C:\opscode\chef\bin\chef-clientError running C:\opscode\chef\bin\chef-client -z --config "C:/PROGRA~2/ThingWorxFoundationH2Trial-8.5.0\installer\foundation\knife.rb" -j "C:/PROGRA~2

We are not able to establish Thingworx (8.3) connection with one of  external Microsoft SQL server database. May I know which log file will provide the information like reason for failing. Could you please provide debugging techniques. We could able to connect other databases from the same Thingworx server.  The issue we observed in production server (Linux) with new use case. We could able to establish connection with this database from SQL studio and network confirmed that firewall port is open between these servers.   Appreciate your early response.

How do i drag pop up mashup over main mashup screen in runtime in thingworx 8.5.2?

Hi All,   Can anyone advise any get around on the following.... in the Thingworx before 8.3/8.4. I am able to use Property display widget with Configure Widget function to select the field which i like to display and reorder in a table format in the mashup.   However, in Thingworx 8.5.4, the configure widget function is not available in the Property display widget, i am not able to select the field to display and in version 8.5.4. In addition, the Property value is hidden, and we need to click to pop up another window to see the value. My mashup is intended as a report to show the value in a table.   Anyway i can get around, to select the data and reorder it? Did i used the wrong widget. Any guidance?   Thank you in advance! Best regards Newbie Kek

I want to import a large amount of timestamped data into a ValueStream. The files are CSV with multiples columns and +100k rows (per file). It's seem that CSVParser is the way to go, but it doesn't fit my needs. Indeed, several problems : The result of the parser is a 500k rows infoTable, and infoTables are not suited for such amount of data. I don't know how to archive these data into a ValueStream. According to this article, I can either: save values row by row with SetPropertyValue, but a for loop on 500k rows can not be performed (way too long) and I can not save the timestamp of my historical values. use updatePropertyValues, but I can only import one column and the dataShape don't match with the infoTable returned by CSVPasrer So, how can I import such a large data history into a ValueStream? Could a JSON format be easier?

So can anyone suggest any thing I can work on, either on PTC or on GitHub rather than a work around to make the look.Any Custom Card Widget Extension done by anyone would be a great help as I am new to extension development A Picture of an example card is given below   ThankYou

dears,   We have recently set up a PTC Thingworx instance on an Azure VM. Since this morning we cannot access the platform anymore. in a previous post, I found we might be able to solve this by using a backup of the database (we are using an H2 database) and put it in C:\ThingworxStorage\database.  however, the backup is from 5 days ago, which means we will lose a lot of progress. is there any other way?   kind regards Rémi

Hello! I want to watch over a particular property, for example, the temperature within the timeframe. If the temperature is above some threshold for 15 min then an alert should be triggered. The value can fluctuate above the threshold, it should be monitored and if it continues above the threshold for 15 min then the new alert should get triggered.   How can I implement it in an ideal way?
