Scheduling Data Imports - PAS ICS Integrity - 7.3 - Installation & Upgrade - Intergraph

After you have collected the data files from your systems, loaded the related asset models, and added the assets in Integrity, you can run or schedule a data import for those assets. For each asset, you need to direct Integrity to perform the data import and subsequent processing of the data. Typically, this procedure runs on a regular schedule that coincides with potential periodic updates in newly collected data.

When you first install Integrity, you need to complete the data import process to make data available in the Integrity web interface. If you load a new version of an asset model, you may also need to complete the data import process for those type of assets to use the updated processing of the data defined by the asset model.

To import data now or on a scheduled basis:

1. In the Admin Utility, click the Schedules link.

2. Click Add to open the Schedule Properties window and add a new schedule.

3. Click General tab to name the import schedule and identify which Integrity server or data collector will import the data. Complete the following steps:

   1. In the Schedule Name field, type a descriptive name for the import schedule.

   2. In the Server run on field, type the name of the Integrity server or data collector that will import the data.

   3. If you want to disable the schedule, clear the Enabled check box. By default, this check box is selected so the import starts at the scheduled time.

4. Click on the Sequences tab to specify that data import tasks (sequences) and their order. This tab allows you to select sequence definitions for one or more assets in a single schedule. For each asset you want to include in this schedule, complete the following steps:

   1. In the Asset field, select an asset. To view a list of assets that have not been scheduled, you can click the Schedule button next to the Asset field.

   2. In the Definitions list, select one or more sequences you want to run. Most asset models support an All sequence. Other sequences are available for testing and troubleshooting purposes, as well as for coordinating connected assets and cross references. In most cases, these other sequences should be used only when working with Technical Support. For more information, see the Implementation Guide for the associated asset model.

      

   3. Click the > button to move the selected sequence to the Sequence list.

   4. Use the up and down arrow buttons to adjust the order of the sequences. The tasks are run one at a time starting at the scheduled start time.

5. Click the Schedule tab to specify the frequency and start time for the import.

6. Click OK.
