Section 3 New Domain Creation and Third Party Software Installation

3.1 Create a New Domain at Primary Domain Controller This procedure is performed at the Domain Server, and is required for all 800xA Systems that

use domains.

For a real installation of an 800xA System, set up a new Domain Server with a domain

specifically for the 800xA System, that will exist independent of any other corporate domains that

may already exist. Follow the procedure in this section, starting at Domain Setup Procedure .

Systems used only for engineering and testing may be set up in a different way:

� Set up a new Domain Server and domain specifically for the 800xA System, and

integrate that domain into the corporate domain structure. In this case it is only

necessary to consult the corporate domain administrator in order to integrate the 800xA

System domain into the corporate domain.

� Create a new domain for the 800xA System on an existing Domain Server. In this case,

provide the domain administrator with the information in this section, and in Users and

Groups. The administrator will require this information to create the new domain and

add the new domain to the existing Domain Controller. The nodes may then be added

to that domain as described in Adding Nodes to a Domain.

� Join the 800xA System nodes to an existing domain. In this case, provide the domain

�

administrator with the information in Users and Groups. The administrator can then

create the users and groups required by the 800xA System domain. The nodes may

then be added to that domain as described in Adding Nodes to a Domain.

3.1.1 Domain Setup Procedure

Perform this procedure at the computer that you have designated to be the Domain Server node.

Create a new domain by setting up a new Domain Controller and DNS server using the Active

Section 7 System Maintenance This chapter describes the required maintenance procedures, for an Industrial IT 800xA System. We distinguish between:

� System Startup / Shutdown and Workplace Reboot (e.g. after a power failure, or unexpected PC failure)

� Periodic Maintenance, e.g. checking the Servers and Networks (time req. approx. 10 min.)

� On Request Maintenance, e.g. backup if parts of the application have changed

� Emergency Maintenance, e.g. if a non redundant, important component fails.

7.1 System Startup

Normally 800xA system is equipped with a fully redundant 800xA system. The minimum

requirements for a running system are:

1 out of 2 Aspect / Connectivity Servers (AS1 / CS1 or AS2 / CS2) running

7.1.1 Recommended System Startup Procedure

The following system start up sequence shall be followed after a complete or partial power down, for

detail procedures see chapter “Periodic Maintenance”:

1. Start Domain Server DC1 / DC2

2. Start AS1 / CS1, AS2 / CS2

�

3. Monitor the system start up with the ABB System Supervisor and/or the Task Manager.

4. When the ABB System Supervisor shows “System Status: Running” wait for a few minutes,

then a workplace on any of the servers (e.g. AS1) and select the System Supervision Display

to verify that all services are running. If at least 1oo2 Connectivity server and 1oo2 Aspect

Servers are running the clients can be started as well.

7.1.1 Recommended System Shut down Procedure

Under normal conditions the system will never be shut down completely, usually only one by one server

has to be rebooted to do maintenance etc. In the case a complete shut down is required, first bring the

plant into a safe condition, then stop the system in the following order.

1. Shut down all the clients.

2. Shut down the Aspect / Connectivity servers. e.g. AS1 / CS1

3. Shut down Domain servers

7.2 Backup of Aspect System

The Aspect System backup can be done with the backup tool of Operate IT. Use the AS1 to create a

backup and store it under the specific directory.
