4.5.3 Backing up Data
You can back up certain types of data and restore it if needed. There are
other types of data that you can only collect, but you cannot restore.
If you have certain variables that represent tuning parameters
(setpoints, for example) you can use tools such as the OpenBSI
DataView recipe feature to save those values to a recipe file on the
PC, and then restore them at a later time. See Chapter 8 of the
OpenBSI Utilities Manual (D5081).
You can store the contents of read/write data arrays using the
OpenBSI Data Array Save/Restore utility. See Chapter 13 of the
OpenBSI Utilities Manual (D5081).
You can collect alarms, and historical data (audit records, archive
files) but you cannot restore alarms or historical data.
