Change the search path order of servers

When you run Rockwell Automation software, FactoryTalk Activation first searches for an activation on the activation server at the top of the Path to Activations list. If the activation file is not available on that server, the system searches the next activation server in the list. Use the following procedure to change the order of the search paths.

To change the search path order of servers:

  1. Click the Manage Activations tab.
  2. Click the Update Activation Search Path link.
  3. Click a server path that you want to move up or down in the list.
  4. Click Up or Down to reposition the search path in the table.
  5. When all server paths are properly ordered, click Save.
  6. Click Refresh Activations to see the changes in the search path list.
