Allows you to specify the computer that will serve as the site server location and to define the related storage paths information. An asterisk (*) at the end of an item name indicates a value is required for that item.

Site server name — Type a name for the site. This name can be anything you want it to be and does not have to be the name of the computer node on which you are creating the site. This name cannot start with a numeric digit and cannot contain any of the following characters: ~ ` ! % ^ & * ( ) - + = { } [ ] \ / ; : ‘ " < > , . ? |

Site server path — Type the path to the location where you want the SmartPlantV4.ini file stored. If the site folder does not exist, the software creates it. You can move this file from this location after the site is created, but can have only one SmartPlantV4.ini file per site. This field is limited to 255 characters and cannot contain any of the following characters: ~ ` ! % * ( ) { } [ ] / ; : ' " < > , ? | .

Backup location — Specify the storage location share path for backing up the site files. You must create this share before running this wizard. This field is limited to 255 characters and cannot contain any of the following characters: ~ ` ! % * ( ) { } [ ] / ; : ' " < > , ? | .

We recommend selecting a backup location that has plenty of available space because the restore process generates a temporary folder in this backup location while the site data is being restored. This folder is removed when the process finishes.

If the backup location for your SQL Server site is located on a separate computer from your database, you must change the login information for the SQL Server services using the following procedure.

  1. In the Windows Control Panel, select Administrative Tools > Services.

  2. In the Services list, double-click MSSQLServer to open the MSSQLSERVER Properties dialog box.

  3. Select This account, and type the user name and password for the domain user who will be starting the MSSQLSERVER service.

    Ensure that the user specified in This account is granted read/write permissions to the share where backups are stored.

  4. Save your changes.

Role template location — Type or browse to the storage location path for the role template files.

  • You can have multiple sites (SmartPlantV4.ini files) on the same computer.

  • Any role template files stored in a location other than the one specified above will not appear in the Template list on the New Roles dialog box. You can modify this path later using the Site Properties dialog box.
