The Administration Command section describes the AVEVA Administration commands for Standard (non-Global) Projects and Global Projects. It is intended for System Administrators who are already experienced administration users and who want to write macros or use command input, rather than the GUI.
The content of this section is based on the assumption that the administrator is already familiar with the concepts that a System Administrator needs to understand. If the administrator is not familiar with these concepts, they should refer to the relevant user guide, as follows:
-
Using AVEVA Administration for a Standard (non-Global) Project is described in Project Administration, which tells the administrator how to set up and administer Projects using the GUI.
Within the section, commands that are only available in AVEVA Global are labelled as "Global Project Administration" commands, for example CANCELCOMMAND (Global Project Administration). Some of these commands are only available at the Hub of a Global Project, and this is also labelled, for example ALLOCATE (Global Project Administration - Hub only). Some options in Standard commands are only available in Global Projects and these options are also indicated by "Global" in associated text.
The section also describes how to use the Data Integrity Checker (DICE), outside the AVEVA base product, as there is no GUI for the stand-alone module. It also describes Database (DB) reconfiguration, which is also a command line or macro operation.
Assumptions
Most people who read this section will be writing macros, either to run into the AVEVA base product when required, for example, to create a new Project, or as part of customizing the AVEVA Administration interface.
There are some commands in AVEVA Administration which automatically create simple macros. These are command files which can be read back into the AVEVA base product. In particular, the administrator can use the REPLICATE (Project definition) command to create a macro which will replicate a Project.
