1. Architecture Overview A PHD implementation may consist of many different integrated hardware and software components depending upon the needs of the customer. The following architecture examples represent two of the many possible topologies that can comprise a PHD implementation. The architecture is highly scalable and not all nodes are necessary or required. In some cases, it may be advisable to combine multiple functions on a single Windows server; while in other cases; distributing functions across multiple servers may provide the best system security and scalability. The following guidelines apply to PHD 310 and subsequent releases. Architecture examples Small scale system Figure 1 - Small scale PHD system Uniformance - PHD Specification Sheet 9

2. Important Considerations in PHD System Sizing 2.1 Introduction The following tables outline the supported maximums for the PHD system. The ability of a customer to reach one or more of these limits depends on numerous considerations including, but not limited to the following: Server physical memory Processor speed Number of processors Disk space Number of system limits being stressed Network capacity Configuration and system tuning Amount of server load imposed by other applications. This Specification Sheet also identifies the recommended hardware. In the case of heavily loaded systems, it is recommended that Honeywell Services be consulted to plan an appropriate server configuration. As each installation will be uniquely tailored to the site s needs, there may be configurations that exceed specified limits. While these configurations may be acceptable; it is recommended that the site contact Honeywell to review the configuration. Some of the limits may be attained only when using high-end hardware - Honeywell Services should be consulted when in doubt. It is important to remember that PHD has been designed to take full advantage of all available hardware resources (such as number of processors, hyper threading, and memory) to provide maximum performance and capacity. ATTENTION The PHD Sizing Tool, SizePHD, must be used to verify that the proposed hardware configuration is consistent with the limits stated in this specification sheet.

3 Important Considerations in PHD System Sizing 3.2 PHD Server It is important for all large scale system configurations, that the site validate performance and capability on the target configuration. 3.2 PHD Server Total number of tags 2,000,000 For higher-end systems or if a larger number of tags is required, it is recommended that Honeywell Services be consulted when planning or configuring these system. Data types supported Type I 32-bit Integer Type L 64-bit Integer Type F Single precision Type D Double precision Type C ASCII String Type U Unicode String Type B Binary Data - Maximum BLOB tag size 32,500 Maximum data size is controlled by two PHD parameters: MAX_USEVALLEN which defaults to 255. This controls the maximum amount of memory PHD allocates for each value in processing requests. MAX_ARCRECSIZE which defaults to 2048. 14 Uniformance - PHD Specification Sheet
3 Important Considerations in PHD System Sizing 3.2 PHD Server This controls the record size within the archive files and must be changed if larger data sizes are required. Maximum string tag size 32,500 characters See above. Number of connected archives 8192 (memory permitting) While PHD permits up to 1024 open archive files, the actual number of open archives is constrained by the available system memory. Maximum archive size 32GB In general, larger archive sizes are recommended for optimal data retrieval response times. Concurrently connected users 10,000 The number of concurrent requests is limited by the system resources and by the number of available pool threads which, by default, is 256 Default limit imposed by APIServer is 100. Uniformance - PHD Specification Sheet 15
3 Important Considerations in PHD System Sizing 3.2 PHD Server PHD Server and RDI cross reference table 65535 Calculate the number of RDIs times the number of servers running those RDIs. For example, if an RDI is running on dual RDC collectors and two shadow servers, it should be counted four times. If the machine in question is one of the hosts, then subtract one (1). Default maximum is 256, but can be increased using the Registry setting RdiHostTableSize. 16 Uniformance - PHD Specification Sheet
3 Important Considerations in PHD System Sizing 3.3 Calculations and Virtual Tags 3.3 Calculations and Virtual Tags Number of functions 128,000 Includes 1D, 2D, and 3D lookup tables Default limit is 100 and is controlled by the PHD parameter MAX_PRCFUNC. Number of modules 128,000 Default limit is 1,000 and is controlled by the PHD parameter MAX_PRCMODULE. Levels of nested virtual tags Number of function arguments 32 for calculations Nested GetData requests are limited to 64. 128 - Calculation registers 64 - Number of characters in a virtual tag definition Length of a calculation string 30,000-2047 - Number of input tags 2048 - Uniformance - PHD Specification Sheet 17
3 Important Considerations in PHD System Sizing 3.4 Roles 3.4 Roles Number of PHD roles Maximum roles per user 287-287 Always uses INTS in 320 3.5 Data Collection and RDI Server Number of RDI Servers per physical server 25 - Number of RDIs per RDI Server 25 for Shadow Servers with Active and Standby nodes configured 100 While the default is approximately 25, this number can be fine tuned using system registry settings (with the consultation of Honeywell Services) Fastest collection rate Slowest collection rate 1 second The number of tags that can be collected at this rate is typically constrained by the capacity of the data provider. 1 day - 18 Uniformance - PHD Specification Sheet
3 Important Considerations in PHD System Sizing 3.6 Standard RDIs Available Maximum tags per RDI 400,000 Typically 25,000-50,000 While an RDI may be assigned 400,000 tags, it is typically advisable to have more RDIs with a lower tag count and collection offsets to balance load against the data provider. 3.6 Standard RDIs Available Honeywell Model Number Name Comments Type A Interfaces - - TP-RDIN52 Experion Link Used with Experion R310 and later TP-RDIN01 Remote LxS RDI Runs on an APP node, and collects data from a TPS system (LCN) TP-RDIN06 Experion/PlantScape RDI Used with PlantScape and Experion releases. Beginning with PHD 210 and Experion 300, Experion Link is the preferred interface.

3 Important Considerations in PHD System Sizing 3.7 Remote Peer Interface Honeywell Model Number TP-RDIN31 Name File Access/FTP for Honeywell systems Comments - Internal RDIs - These interfaces are included in the PHD server license. Gateway RDI - Shadow RDI - Manual Input RDI - Virtual Tag RDI - Test RDI Sine wave simulation interface ATTENTION All RDIs are licensed per area, which is roughly equivalent to a PHD collector and shadow system. Numerous additional RDIs have been developed on a project basis. Contact Honeywell if an interface is required for a system that is not listed here. 3.7 Remote Peer Interface Number of remote peers on a PHD server 20 if run as a specific user 100 if run under the local System account - 3.8 PHD OPC Server 20 Uniformance - PHD Specification Sheet

RDM is assumed not to be installed for this number. Uniformance - PHD Specification Sheet 21
