I was trying to export views from one gateway to another and discovered that my power chart was broken because the Tag Path (under Edit Pens) depends on the name of the gateway to find the correct OPC path. For example, the tag path is:
histprov:SQLSERVER_WinAuth:/drv:my_ignition_server:default:/tag:mytags/mytag
This dependency enforces that my Ignition System Name is the same for every environment in order for the project to be deployable. I’d like to have different system names between environments to distinguish them. Why does the tag depend on this information? Could the Ignition System Name be accessed through an environment variable instead?
Is this a feature for tag-sharing across gateways?
