About This Task

The following steps must be completed to upgrade this module to . These instructions assume that you have completed the steps for upgrading the basic GE Digital APM system architecture.

These tasks may be completed by multiple people in your organization. We recommend, however, that the tasks be completed in the order in which they are listed.

Procedure

    Upgrade or Update Asset Health Manager to V4.3.1.0.0

    About This Task

    The following steps must be completed to upgrade this module to V4.3.1.0.0. These instructions assume that you have completed the steps for upgrading the basic GE Digital APM system architecture.

    These tasks may be completed by multiple people in your organization. We recommend, however, that the tasks be completed in the order in which they are listed.

    Procedure

    1. In the GE Digital APM Server, configure the Meridium Notification Service for AHM.
    2. In the GE Digital APM Server, start or restart the Meridium Notification Service.

      You may review the log files for this service at C:\ProgramData\Meridium\Logs.

    3. Start or restart the Meridium AHI Service (Asset Health Indicator Service).

      You may review the log files for this service at C:\ProgramData\Meridium\Logs.

    4. On the Process Data Integration Server, start (or restart if it is already started) the Meridium Process Data Integration Service.
      Note: This step is required only if you are using OPC Tag records as health indicators sources.

      Note: This step is required only if you are using OPC Tag records as health indicators sources.
    5. Optional: Resync health indicators.

      Depending on the status of potential health indicator sources in your database, the resync will result in one or both of the following scenarios:

      • If health indicators do not already exist for sources that are included as health indicators, the resync creates health indicators for those sources.
      • If health indicators exist for sources that are excluded as health indicators, the resync deletes health indicators for those sources.

      Additionally, if the exclusion table contains extraneous entries, the resync removes those entries.

      You may review the log files for this service at C:\ProgramData\Meridium\Logs.

    4. Review the potential health indicator source records in your database and specify whether or not health indicators should be automatically created for each.

      During the database upgrade process, any valid health indicator source records that are linked to an asset and not linked to a Health Indicator record will be excluded from the automatic health indicator creation by default.

      Note: Alternatively, prior to upgrading to GE Digital APM, you can use the Health Indicator Builder in V3 to create Health Indicator records for the necessary source records. Removing the exclusions after upgrading will cause the GE Digital APM system to generate health indicators automatically.
    5. If you previously used the Hierarchy Item Definition family to create a custom hierarchy for Asset Health Manager, ensure that the relevant asset families are included in the application-wide Asset Hierarchy configuration.
    6. If you are using custom Health Indicator Mapping records, specify values in the Type Field and Type Value fields to ensure that the mappings are used for the appropriate reading type.
    7. On the Process Data Integration Server, start (or restart if it is already started) the Meridium Process Data Integration Service.
      Note: This step is required only if you are using OPC Tag records as health indicators sources.
    8. Optional: Resync health indicators.
