This topic describes how to enable offline archive creation. This is to avoid receiving an outside-active-hours error. It happens if you attempt to store data when the current archive file is set to read-only.
Procedure
Stop the Historian DataArchiver service.
Open Command Prompt with elevated privileges or administrator privileges.
Navigate to the folder in which the ihDataArchiver_x64.exe
file is located. By default, it is C:\Program Files\Proficy\Proficy
Historian\x64\Server.
To enable the ihArchiveCreateOfflineArchive option for a data
store, run the following command: ihDataArchiver_x64 OPTION.<data
store name> ihArchiveCreateOfflineArchive 1
