10.1.1 Defining the server assignment
Introduction
In order for a client to be able to display the process data from different servers in a distributed
system, it needs information about the associated data. Server data (packages) are generated
for this, to be provided to the clients. The client requires the server data from all servers, whose
process information it should visualize.
The system creates/updates the server data automatically during OS compilation and
download. Alternatively, the server data can be generated manually in the SIMATIC Manager
using "Generate server data" in the context menu.
