Allow access to each PI AF server from PI Vision

Use the AVEVA PI Vision Administration website to allow access to each PI AF server and PI AF databases that your users are working with.

1. In your web browser, navigate to the AVEVA PI Vision Administration website.

   By default, this site is located at: https://webServer/PIVision/Admin where webServer is the name of the AVEVA PI Vision web server.

2. On the Overview page, select Manage Configuration next to the Asset Servers/Databases Allowed list, or select Configuration in the navigation tree and choose the Asset Servers tab.

   

   The PI AF Servers and Databases page opens. This page lists the PI AF Servers recognized by AVEVA PI Vision. To add a PI AF server to the list, see Add a PI Data Archive server or a PI AF server to the registered servers list.

3. If a PI AF server has a triangle symbol beside it, you can expand it to see a list of PI AF databases on that server in the Databases column:

   1. To verify the connection to a PI AF server, select Test Connection in the Connection Status column.

   2. To allow access to all databases, select the All check box.

4. Alternatively, to enable access to a subset of the databases, select the check boxes of only those databases to which you want to allow access. If a PI AF server does not have a triangle symbol beside it, select Test Connection to initiate a connection to that server.

   If the connection is successful, you can then see the databases that reside on that server.

5. After you have finished making changes, select Save to update the AVEVA PI Vision application server with your selections.
