Migrating legacy plugins to Industrial IoT 5.0.1.1 - Industrial IoT 5.0.1.1 | BACnet | Modbus | OPC Client | SNMP Manager

If you were using one of the legacy plugin roles, BACnet, Modbus, OPC Client, or SNMP Manager, you must migrate the entities they manage to the new Industrial IoT plugin role.

1. From the Config Tool home page, open the Plugins task.
2. Select the Industrial IoT plugin role and click the Properties tab.
   When you have legacy plugin roles on your system, a third section is displayed under the Time Series section in the Properties page.

   
3. In the Import section, click the drop-down list, select a plugin to migrate, and click Import.
   The Importation dialog box opens.

   
4. (Optional) Select the Import reports option to preserve the historical data.
   The historical data include the health events, the input activities, and the rule activities. You can view these historical data with the Industrial IoT investigation tasks.
5. Click Import to start the importation.
   The import of the selected plugin starts. Do not close this window before the progress bar shows 100%.

   
6. When the importation is finished, do one of the following:
   • Click Delete old database to delete the old database before clicking Close.
   • Click Close and delete the old database yourself from the Resources page of the disabled plugin role.
7. Repeat the same process for all legacy plugins that you have on your system.
8. Delete all legacy plugin roles that are no longer needed: BACnet, Modbus, OPC Client, and SNMP Manager.
