Hi, Do you mean you have two multiprojects and each MP has a redundant server system? Normally, you would have a multiproject with a server of redundant server pair and x-amount of clients. When the client is created, you assign an OS server to it. The client will receive a server package which is file with configuration data. However, it is possible that you want to have data from another multiproject projected in the client. In this case, you have to manually select the server data from the other project in WinCC Explorer. The client will receive all necessary data from that project. You have to be aware that the two multiproject operate with the same PCS7 versions and updates...You cannot integrated server package from a V8.1 project into a V9.1 project for example. The server data is updated when you download the servers or when a full OS compile is triggered, it can be manually updated via OS change compile via the enable button in the OS compilation settings. |

Hi, Yes that is the alternative solution. You must create the client in one of the two MP, assign server data and connect the server package from the other MP. For one of our customers, we have the same setup working for years. As I mentioned before, it is a bit tricky when you update to a new version, because the two MP projects must be done together and you have some restrictions. The client must have standard server set for SSM and Alarms by default. If you create client in MP project X, you can only assign the standard server from the servers of MP project X and not from MP project Y. Also the client is downloaded from MP project X. Getting the pictures in one pdl is tricky because you create the picture in the server project, but you cannot access the server from the other MP project. Maybe a possibility is that you create a picture on the OS and insert two picture windows one from the actual server project (MP Project X) and the other one you are using the server prefix as suffix-> If the symbolic name of the server in MP Project Y is: OSSY, you can call a picture window like this: OSSY::[name of picture].pdl. But this have to be tested.... One other solution is to create two clients (one in MP Project X and one in Project Y)with one monitor for example and put them together in the operator control room next to each other. Then you will have a dedicated client. But a disadvantage is that you need to order additional OS client licenses, need a PC etc.etc.
