Additional recommendations/limitations

•It is generally of advantage for the system performance if the technical specifications of the basic hardware, e.g. clock, main memory or hard disk, are above the recommended val- ues listed in the table. This particularly applies to multiproject engineering.

•A requirement for integration of PC-based SIMATIC PCS 7 ba- sic hardware into the PC diagnostics of the SIMATIC PCS 7 asset management is the SIMATIC PC DiagMonitor software. This belongs to the scope of delivery of SIMATIC PCS 7 Indus- trial Workstations and SIMATIC PCS 7 BOX RTX/416 and can- not be executed on other systems.

•For long-term archiving with large quantity frameworks, we recommend the PCS 7 Premium server from the Catalog ST PCS 7.1 (Add-ons for the SIMATIC PCS 7 process control system) as the central archive server. However, the PCS 7 Premium server cannot be integrated into the PC diagnostics of the SIMATIC PCS 7 asset management.

•For increased data availability on the central archive server, we recommend a RAID hard disk system (at least RAID 1).
