SYSTEMLOCATION (Global Project Administration - Hub Only)

Function:

Changes the administering Location of a Satellite.

Description:

The SYSTEMLOC command changes the Primary Location of the System Database (DB) for the specified Location. The Primary Location of the Hub System DB cannot be changed: the Hub cannot be administered remotely.

• The SYSTEMLOC command cannot complete while there are Users in the AVEVA base product with Write access to the System DB. The command will eventually complete once all such Users have left the AVEVA base product. The administrator may need to use EXPUNGE to remove phantom Users.

If a SYSTEMLOC command fails, the previous Primary Location will normally be recovered automatically. If the recovery fails (for example, the daemon is not running), the administrator can recover the previous Primary Location using the command:

PREVOWN SYSTEM AT locname

Use of the PREVOWN command should be avoided if possible.

Offline Locations:

An offline Location can only be administered by the Hub or the Location itself. Once an offline Location has been initialized, the administrator can only change the administering Location from the Hub to the Location, not from the Location to the Hub.

Examples:

Command Syntax:

Querying:

>--- Q PRVRF --->
