I’ve searched the forums and online help and can’t find what I’m looking for: Details regarding the status and diagnotic tags available from the OPC-UP server. Thanks

Many of the status tags defined by the UA spec are not implemented right now, however, under Server/VendorServerInfo/ServiceStats you’ll find a variety of statistics about calls to the OPC-UA services.

Are there any in particular you are looking for - and for what reason? I am only curious because you are the first person to ask about these so far.

I’d like to monitor communications at the server level, i.e. good, bad, error types, etc.

Communications of the service calls? Meaning the calls from UA clients to the server? Or something else?

I’d like to get as much diagnostic information as I can and make that available in a SQL table.
