IDAS error logging

An IDAS logs all errors to the ArchestrA Logger Service. If the IDAS is installed on a remote computer, the ArchestrA Logger Service will also be installed on the remote computer. During normal operation, remote IDAS errors are logged to both the local logger and the logger on the AVEVA Historian computer.

If the network connection between the remote IDAS and the Historian fails, no error messages are sent to the logger on the Historian computer. Therefore, you should periodically use the Operations Control Management Console to check the log on the remote IDAS computer to ensure that no problems occurred. After the network connection is restored, error messages are not forwarded to Historian computer.
