At infrastructure level we migrated from VMWARE to Nutanix and after this we keep having this issue everyday. The only way it is getting auto resolved is after reboot. We can do this now since only test environment is migrated and we are soon planning to migrate production environment as well. In that case every time reboot is difficult as production activities will get interrupted. Is there a way to fix this issue? Like deactivating and activating license again? or changing the license type to offline one? Repair option in license utility will fix this? Kepware OPC connectivity suite verison 6.11.764.

Hello Community,I have created a trigger for already created Log group in Thingworx Kepware Server v6.16 Data Logger.Other triggers are working but created trigger is not working.Created Trigger:1. Always Trigger2. Trigger on Data ChangeAny solution?

I am using the datalogger in KEPServerEx 6.16 to store "frames" of data to SQL. Things like recipes and test results, where I have a single set of data that I want inserted all at once. I have  a way set up that works pretty well. I stage the data to be sent in a buffer in the plc, set the datalog trigger to start and stop on a specific tag and to log all items on starts, and when the data is ready, I activate that trigger and read back the msg_count incrementing as an acknowledge it was sent to reset the trigger and stage the next data. I found that every once in a while, I would get a null or double entry in my database doing this method. I did some experimenting, and what I believe is the cause is occasionally the trigger would be read before all the data had. The trigger is set to update every second while the log data is only every 100ms, so in theory that shouldn't happen. I seemed to have fixed it for now by simply adding a timer delay between staging the dat

We are looking to manage all kepware tags from a central server. Once testing is done, we currently need to export and import these tags into 14 other servers that have Kepware installed. This is tedious and prone to error.   I know I could copy the project file from the central server and copy to the remote servers, but this would entail taking down the Kepware service copying the file and then restarting the service.  I'd prefer to not have to do this.  Is anyone familiar with a tool/program that will compare/sync all Channels/PLCs/TagGroups/Tags between two servers and perform the update without having to take down the services?

What are the differences in the following tags:cnc_rddynamic2_ActScnc_rdaxisdata:3:1:1:datacnc_rdaxisdata:3:2:1:data

Today, I created a transfer file from the old PC running Kepware server and uploaded it to the my.Kepware account. The transfer message indicated that the license has now been "Banked". When I go to the "View Activation History" I see 1/0, but I see no other details. The screen is blank otherwise. There is no Kepware license code appearing for the newly banked license that was transferred today. I want to transfer this license to a new PC, as the old hardware has died. How can this be fixed?
