Holding database

The Holding database temporarily stores topic and configuration data imported into AVEVA Historian from an InTouch node. When you import configuration data from an InTouch application, the data is first mapped to table structures in the Holding database. Then, the data is moved into the Runtime database.

Important: Do not modify any entities in the Holding database.

For more information about importing configuration information from an InTouch application, see Import and export tag configurations.
