Hi,

check if in the CommonArchiving folder of the WinCC project. If there are data inside move this to another folder or delete them if you don't need them anymore.

Then dry again.

I have a doubt regarding the recovery of stored values from WinCC server.

When does the data recovery start?The Process Historian is showing that one source is connected, but there is no indicator for the stored values parameter.So I am a little bit confused because I have no idea if the Process Historian is recovering any data from the WinCC Server.

Dear all, hello!

Here I would like to put my experience with creating back up (please see pdf file)

If you have comments to this file please share it.

My system now in work processes  and I still have issue:

1. Today I have one sector (2week) 600Gb How much it will be when it back up.

2. How to automatically delete back up of sector? 

All this question come from HDD space has limit.

Hi,

This was my experience too!

My final days on one very big project, PH was the last thing to put to work. I did everything by the book, like many times before, but the data exchange wasn't starting, judging by the PH diagrams.

I practically gave up, went home, ready to spend several more days in order to solve the problem.

 The next morning, all the data were streaming normally from WinCC to PH, just like in your case. I never figured out how long it needed to start, but i was happy about the final result.

 Hello, to all!!!

I have the same problem, like GlebM. But it works, before changing time zone in our country(Kazakhstan). From +6 to +5. After that PH dont have activity in stored value window, and stored messages window. I changed time zone on two servers, and on the ph server, but it doesnt work.
