How to Set-Up Dual Logging with OPC UA Collector
Dual Logging is a powerful feature that allows tags to be sent from one OPC Server to many historians. Typically, Dual Logging is for sending data to local/corporate historians as well as primary/redundant historians.
- Open the Canary admin and select the 'OPC Collector' tile. 
- Select an existing session or create a New Log Session. 
- Find the Session Settings menu towards the bottom of the page. 
- In the Historian field, write to as many historians as you wish by typing in the names of the machines that have a historian installed on them. Separate machine names with commas. 
- In the example above, data is sent to two historians. Typing 'Localhost' tells the OPC UA Collector to search the local machine for the historian while 'etrexler' is the name of a different machine with a remotely accessible historian installed.
