Setting up archiving feature

This feature is only for Admin users

Important: This feature is not installed by default. If you’re a server admin, follow the steps below to enable it.

Installation

Packaged installer: Make sure the cpmPlusVtrinNetServerDashboardArchiver package is installed. It includes Chrome and the correct version of chromedriver.
Monolithic installer: You’ll need to manually download the correct chromedriver.exe that matches the version of Chrome installed on the server. Place the chromedriver.exe file in the same folder as Vtrin-NetServer.exe.

Configuration

Dashboard archiving can be customized using your Vtrin-NetServer.exe.config file. Below is an example of the optional configuration section:

<configuration>
  <configSections>
    <!-- This configSections part is unfortunately neccessary because dotnet is validating this config file so it need to be told about this custom section schemas -->
    <sectionGroup name="webDriver">
      <section name="browser" type="System.Configuration.NameValueSectionHandler,System" />
      <section name="arguments" type="System.Configuration.NameValueSectionHandler,System" />
    </sectionGroup>
    <section name="dashboardArchivingConfig" type="System.Configuration.NameValueSectionHandler,System" />
  </configSections>
  <webDriver>
    <browser value="Chrome" />
    <arguments>
      <add value="headless" />
      <add value="ignore-certificate-errors" />
      <!-- <add value="auto-open-devtools-for-tabs" /> -->
      <!-- <add value="no-sandbox" /> -->
      <!-- <add value="disable-gpu" /> -->
      <!-- <add value="disable-extensions" /> -->
    </arguments>
  </webDriver>
  <dashboardArchivingConfig>
    <add name="Enabled" value="true" />
    <add name="SkipAuthCheck" value="false" />
    <add name="DefaultPaperSize" value="a3" />
    <add name="DefaultOrientation" value="landscape" />
    <add name="LoginSuccessIndicatorClassName" value="ABBMia_cTopBarUserName" />
    <add name="PrintReadyClassName" value="ABBMia_PrintReady" />
    <add name="UniqueNamingStyle" value="timestamp" /> <!-- timestamp or incremental -->
    <add name="LoginPageTimeout" value="6" />
    <add name="AuthCheckTimeout" value="11" />
    <add name="PrintPageTimeout" value="41" />
  </dashboardArchivingConfig>
  <!-- This is the Vtrin-NetServer example configuration file - you must edit this file to setup your server!	-->
  <!-- Vtrin-NetServer can be run either stand-alone or under Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) 	-->
  <!-- The address on the server will be formed like here: proto://computername[:port]/objectUri/datasourceUri 	-->
  <!-- Configure and copy this file to the directory the Vtrin-NetServer is installed and rename it to Vtrin-Netserver.exe.config -->
  <!-- For more information, please see: https://abilityhistory.abb.com/wiki/index.php?title=Vtrin_Server_Configuration -->
  <appSettings>
    <!-- <add key="AccountQueryFilter" value="Domain='%COMPUTERNAME%'" />		     -->
    <!-- Win32_Account query WHERE clause - can be used for performance reasons to prevent Vtrin-NetServer from scanning complete domain for users. (if the security editor seems to freeze, you need to tune this one). -->
    <!-- <add key="ChangeSendDelay" value="500" />					     -->
    <!-- Time to wait in ms when event is triggered for further events to combine them into a single frame, set to zero to disable (will disable lag, but cause a lot of tcp ping pong with any larger amounts of events). -->
    <add key="CertificateName" value="vtrincert" />
....

All configuration values are optional—defaults are hardcoded. The feature will still function even without custom configuration.

For more advanced configuration and troubleshooting, refer to the technical documentation or contact support.
