Configure System Monitor Manager

To configure System Monitor Manager

1. On the left navigation pane, expand AVEVA System Monitor, and select System Monitor Manager.

   

   • If the System Platform node does not include Historian or MES, the initial System Monitor Manager Configuration window contains a single field for the System Monitor Manager name (node name).

   • If the System Platform node includes Historian or MES, the initial System Monitor Manager Configuration window contains additional fields to define credentials for MES and/or the Historian.

2. In the System Monitor Manager Name field, enter either the computer name (preferred) or IP address of the node that will act as the System Monitor Manager. If you are configuring the current node as the System Monitor Manager, enter its name or IP address. If you have configured secure communications for the Common Platform, the machine name must be used (IP address is not supported for secure communications).

   See the AVEVA System Monitor User Guide for additional information.

   Note: TCP/IP is used for communications between System Monitor Agents and the System Monitor Manager. Use the Advanced Configuration dialog to configure the TCP/IP port numbers.

3. Select Test Connection to check that the node you are configuring can reach the System Monitor Manager node.

4. Select Configure.

5. Select the next item in the left pane that requires configuration. When all required items have been configured, select Close to complete installation.
