We're still waiting GSC feedback after 4 days, so I'm looking for a consensus from you guys regarding a DeltaV DB recover from fhx. 10.3.1
Live plant with equipment running, after suffering a DB crash, re-created new DB, import of fhx successful apart from two SIS logic solvers (failed on “script size >100K”, and are now showing in Explorer as de-commissioned). In the present condition, all the DV controllers are indicating healthy, but all workstations are showing RED X as we need to download the PRO+.
Question is what effect will it have on the SLS’s that have not imported? They are shown in DV explorer as de-commissioned; I’m reluctant to perform a PRO+ station download in case it will cause the de-commissioned SLS’s to trip.
One suggestion I’ve received so far is to try performing a PRO+ download whilst disconnected from CN, I would then only need to worry about the SLS at a later date (fix the logic to reduce script size, and re-commission them).
Plant shutdown is expected sometime in the next two weeks, therefore, is it wise to hang on?
Thoughts?
In my opinion download of the ProPlus should have no effect on the SLS. I have never experienced a contoller or LS (unless they are simulated on the ProPlus) download when Proplus download is performed. However, if you have a luxury to wait 2 weeks I would also do that.
