Unified Engineering configure AVEVA global

On the Unified Engineering environments, AVEVA CDO will provide access to AVEVA Professional Services who will:

• Configure (initialize) locations for projects agreed with the customer.

  Important: Locations created in AVEVA Administration corresponding to Unified Engineering environments should be configured with IP addresses (in the hostname field). This will ensure continued functionality between Unified Engineering environment upgrades where the Global Server hostname is changed (for a blue-green upgrade model) but the IP address remains unchanged.

  Note: When creating new or modifying existing Global locations in AVEVA Administration, there is a Hostname Check button that attempts an ICMP PING to the Hostname.
  For security reasons, ICMP is blocked between Unified Engineering workspaces and servers. Moreover, ICMP is generally blocked by on-prem IT. Therefore, it is probable that when clicking the Check button you will receive a "Could not contact the host <hostname>" message. The location can still be created or modified and after the daemon has been setup a Global PING can be used to test communications.

• Generate and securely pass transfer sets to customer making allowance for the <NON_DABACON_PROJECT_FOLDER_FILE_LIST>

• Configure the AVEVA Global multi daemon Service for projects agreed with the customer. The configuration file for the service is named MultidsCUE.bat residing in the Global installation folder.

These tasks are described in internal AVEVA documentation.
