Configure tags to be replicated

Simple replication is when the destination tag on the next-tier Historian has the same type and storage rules as the source tag on the lower-tier Historian, and that the destination tag will also have the same values/data.

The rules for other kinds of tags also apply to replicated tags:

• Each tag is identified by a unique name.

• Configuration information for each type of tag is stored in the Historian, as well as the history for tags over time.

• You can use the Configuration Editor to view and edit information for existing tag definitions, create definitions for new tags, or delete existing tags.

For more information about tags and tag naming conventions, see About Tags in the AVEVA Historian Concepts Guide.

You can create simple replication tags one at a time or in multiples.

If you delete a replication tag, the associated tag entities are deleted. Replication continues until you manually commit the change to the database or stop and restart the system. If you modify a replication tag, the changes are automatically committed.
