We have an ODH historian with around 6000 tags and which is requesting data from the App-node (TPN server which is on the LCN network). We are using OPC Optimizer to help with server load. The problem is that the LCN is being overloaded and is very slow.
On OPC Optimizer we have configured 500 items per group. A group is the update rate of the tags-so if there are 1000, 1 sec tags ...it is one group but since we only have 500 per group ...the optimizer would split them into two groups. The number of groups to connect with the tpn is set to 1. Which means instead of having more than one group request data with one connection, each group is initiating its own connection with the tpn sever. Basically around 13 connections are being made to the tpn server from optimizer with 500 tags each. I think there are too many requests to the app-node which is overloading the server which is somehow overloading the lcn.
I have a few questions. Will more connections from the optimizer to the tpn server slow down the network (LCN)? Or could it be that requesting data for 6000 tags is too much bandwidth on the lcn? Any suggestions are very appreciated.
Also if a server is working hard, does that slwo down the network?
Thanks alot
