You can configure historian connections at the project level from Project Properties. When you move a project to another node, the configurations are copied along with the project and hence, you do not need to re-configure the historian connections.

Option 2.2.1. Configuration Security for a Project

About this task

Configuration security configuration.
Configuration security runtime.

Configuration security configuration

Procedure

In the Project Properties dialog box, in the Options tab, select Configuration security.

A Configuration tab is added to the Role Properties dialog box. Users with roles configuration privileges can specify what applications users assigned to each role can configure after they log in to the project.
Important: In order to ensure that configuration is only performed by users who have the privilege, configuration security requires a manual login even if Windows Authentication is used and Allow Auto Login is selected.
Check the privileges a role can have when configuration security is enabled.

Procedure

When you try to access Workbench, a Configuration Login dialog box is displayed.
If your role has not been granted Workbench privileges, you will be denied access.
