Perform a Warm Restart

Batch Manager has the capability to restore the previously known-good state of the system upon restart after unexpected system shutdowns. This functionality is known as Warm Restart. As the AVEVA Batch Management System runs batches, all batch processing and equipment allocation information is written to multiple data files. In the event of a system failure, these files are read by the AVEVA Batch Management System when it is restarted. The data in these files allows the AVEVA Batch Management System to resume batch operation.

Batch Manager is started in the usual manner to enable the Warm Restart functionality. There are no special startup commands necessary. The only requirement for a Warm Restart is the presence of a .BatchWR folder located in the configuration folder (config_A). The .BatchWR folder is automatically loaded in the configuration directory following system installation (…\Batch\cfg\config_A\.BatchWR).
