Hi

if adding same tag multiple times on same easychart database connection will fail.  
We can reproduce this easily just making new EasyChart component and dragging and dropping any SQLTag twice or more to it.  
Database connection will come back after minutes.

Win 2008 server  
Ignition 7. 4.1  
MSSQL 2008 server R2

When your database faults, what error message do you get back? You can view this on the Status page in the gateway.
