Defines the paths to the storage locations relevant for storing plant data and drawings. An asterisk (*) at the end of an item name indicates a value is required for that item.

Plant structure path — Specify the path to the storage location for the plant data and the drawing files. You must create the plant structure share before running this wizard, using the form \\siteserver\sitename\plantname. The wizard will create the plantname folder if it does not already exist.

Backup location — Specify the path to the shared storage folder for backing up the plant files.

  • Specify a backup location outside the Plant structure path to avoid recursive backups being stored in a single backup file.  For example, if the Plant structure path is \\siteserver\sitename\plantname, do not set the Backup location for plantname to \\siteserver\sitename\plantname\backups.

  • Be sure the backup location has plenty of available space because the restore process generates a temporary folder in this backup location while the plant data is being restored. This folder is removed when the process finishes.

  • All paths must use the Universal Naming Convention (UNC) format and cannot exceed 255 characters.

  • Location paths cannot contain any of the following characters: ~ ` ! % * ( ) { } [ ] / ; : ' " < > , ? |
