Hello All,

 

I have been successful in getting the epics archiver appliance to archive PVs that are running in soft IOCs locally on the same machine as the archiver.  But now I tried to archive an IOC that is running on a subnet 192.168.40.x and it is says its connected/archiving but it never pushes to STS. It does show the details from the record for caLab:dmm shown below, which seems like its able to read from it. Settings for archiver appliance.xml below and also the archappl.conf environment variables set for the subnet to be seen.  I am able to also use caget through cmdline to get values from caLab:dmm and CSStudio is able to monitor them but the archiver doesn’t seem to be actually saving the data.
