Prior to release 4.0.22, Disk-Backed History stores are located as shown below and are not included in the Ignition GWBK
- ~yourIgnitionInstance\user-lib\cls\data\h2
From release 4.0.22, Disk-Backed History stores are located as shown below and are included in the Ignition GWBK
- ~yourIgnitionInstance\data\modules\com.cirrus-link\com.cirruslink.mqtt.transmission.gateway\h2
- ~yourIgnitionInstance\data\modules\com.cirrus-link\com.cirruslink.mqtt.azure.gateway\h2
- ~yourIgnitionInstance\data\modules\com.cirrus-link\com.cirruslink.mqtt.aws.gateway\h2
- ~yourIgnitionInstance\data\modules\com.cirrus-link\com.cirruslink.mqtt.google.gateway\h2
and the Alarm Disk-Backed History store is located as shown below and is included in the Ignition GWBK
- ~yourIgnitionInstance\data\modules\com.cirrus-link\com.cirruslink.mqtt.engine.gateway\h2
We identified an issue with locating these history stores in the ~yourIgnitionInstance\data\ directory which results in the inability to manually take a GWBK from the Gateway webpage or run a scheduled GWBK.
| The issue only occurs on Windows and does not affect Linux or Mac installations. |
To mitigate these issue, from release 4.0.25, the base path for the database location of any Disk-Backed History store is configurable.
- The default base path for Linux is ~yourIgnitionInstance\data\modules and the database will be included in the Ignition GWBK
- The default location for Windows Linux is ~yourIgnitionInstance\user-lib\modules and the database will not be included in the Ignition GWBK
- The database file will be created in this directory under the base paths
- com.cirrus-link\com.cirruslink.mqtt.transmission.gateway\h2
- com.cirrus-link\com.cirruslink.mqtt.azure.gateway\h2
- com.cirrus-link\com.cirruslink.mqtt.aws.gateway\h2
- com.cirrus-link\com.cirruslink.mqtt.engine.gateway\h2
- com.cirrus-link\com.cirruslink.mqtt.google.gateway\h2
If you are installed on Windows and unable to download or schedule a GWBK, our recommendation is:
- Update to release 4.0.25 or newer
- Change the location of the disk-backed history store and alarm config out of the ~yourIgnitionInstance\data\ directory
