Forward data to another historian

Forum / Questions & Answers

The mirror functionality was discontinued and Steve Mason proposed this a "proxy configuration that can forward the data along to another historian."

What is that exactly?  I have a historian onsite that is on the control network and we are going to open a port on the business network to push the history to a in town Canary Historian.  It is not clear how this should be configured.

    I believe you'll want to enable the Proxy feature in Store and Forward: https://helpcenter.canarylabs.com/t/x2yfy1h/how-to-configure-a-proxy-server-version-25

    looks good.  I want to have the corporate side server use its own identity service.  Is there anything that needs to be done to make that work?

    That's an interesting piece. I see no issue with the 2 historians being on different identity services. But the SaF will need to be able to write to both (assuming you use the SaF on the control network historian server and not a standalone proxy server). On the Business network historian you can create an API Key for it. My question is, if you update the API token on the SaF that runs the local historian, will it mess with things. The tool tip on the Identity API Token field in the SaF tile implies that it's only used for remote historians, so maybe not.

    I gotta believe this is very doable.
