history-ConfigRules

This container for rules determines the configuration of histories that are pushed to the local device. The station applies configuration rules when it creates a history. Changing a rule has no effect on existing histories. The ConfigRules functionality is provided by the history palette.

When a station exports a history to another station, it evaluates the history Config Rules to set up the local (archived) history’s config properties: Capacity and Full Policy. It uses the first matching rule. The Default Rule is always at the top and cannot be deleted or renamed.

 NOTE: Rule priority is set by order: the Default Rule is always first, it is highest priority. If you create additional rules in Workbench (right-click a rule, then click Duplicate), you can edit, rename, and reorder rules as needed.
