In some cases, you may need to distribute Geo SCADA database folders (such as Config, Data, History, etc.) to different disks or locations for performance optimization or storage management. This can be achieved using the Registry Editor method. Below is a step-by-step guide.
Steps to Move Database Folders
Step 1: Shut Down the Geo SCADA Server
- Right-click the Geo SCADA Server icon in the system tray.
- Select Shutdown Server.
Step 2: Locate the Original Database Folder
- Navigate to the default database path:
C:\ProgramData\Schneider Electric\ClearSCADA\Database
Here you will find folders such as: - Config
- ConfigChanges
- Data
- DataFiles
- HisFiles
- History
- Journal
Step 3: Move the Desired Folder
- Copy or move the folder you want to relocate (e.g., ConfigChanges, History) to the new disk or location.
Step 4: Update the Registry
- Open Registry Editor (
regedit). - Navigate to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Schneider Electric\ClearSCADA\DB - Locate the registry key corresponding to the folder you moved (e.g.,
ConfigChangePath,HistoryPath). - Update the Value data to the new folder path.
Step 5: Restart Geo SCADA Server
- Start the Geo SCADA server again.
- Verify the new folder location in Server Configuration → System configuration → Location.
Best Practices
- Ensure the new location has sufficient disk space and proper permissions.
- Avoid moving folders while the server is running.
- Keep a backup of the original database before making changes.
