Enabling INTERNAL Communication

Usage of the INTERNAL path depends on the activation of the AUTHW001 and AUTHW002 autotasks.

When System Automation is started, the autotasks that are defined as automated function operators in your automation policy entry Automation Operators are activated. It also activates the connection to your local processor and all defined remote processors.

Automated Function Name Autotask Name Task Function Description
HWOPER01 AUTHW001 Monitors the Connection
HWOPER02 AUTHW002 Communication task

Create an Automated Operators entry of HW_OPERS and define the HWOPER01 and HWOPER02 automated functions. Select each of the automated functions (HWOPER01, HWOPER02) and type the associated autotask name from the table in the Primary Operator field. Leave the other fields empty.

Finally, the HW_OPERS entry must be assigned to the system, where System Automation is supposed to be active. Use the WHERE USED policy of your HW_OPERS entry to assign the system.
