UPGRADE FROM OPSSQL to HACH WIMS
In order to upgrade from OPSSQL to Hach WIMS, use the following queries:
Step 1: What is the Interface ID number?
Run a SQL Console, log into OPSROOT, and enter the following query:
SELECT interface_id, lu_id, name from g2_server
In our example, the interface ID number is '1'.
Step 2: Update all variables in Hach WIMS.
Run a SQL Console, log into the facility, and enter the following query, BE SURE TO CHANGE g2_interface_id TO THE APPROPRIATE NUMBER WE GOT IN STEP 1 (everything else is exactly as it is shown):
UPDATE vardesc
SET
lims_loc = ud1,
lims_test = ud2,
lims_ud1 = ud3,
g2_interface_id = 1,
g2_enabled = -1
WHERE ud1 is not null and ud2 is not null and ud3 is not null and ud1 <> ' ' and ud2 <> ' ' and ud3 <> ' '
