Chapter 2
Configure the Process Automation System
Server (PASS)
This chapter details several procedures for configuring a new Process Automation
System Server (PASS) virtual machine:
• Setting up Windows Server 2008 for the new instance
• Setting up the Network Adapter
• Setting up FactoryTalk Directory
• Setting up activation files
The FactoryTalk Directory is the information hub that centralizes the settings
and administration of Rockwell Automation software components across
multiple computers throughout the PlantPAx system. You must designate a PASS
server for the FactoryTalk Directory.
The required Rockwell Automation software for the PASS system element
virtual template is included and pre-installed in the virtual image templates, but
not activated. To activate each PASS virtual template, you can purchase a single
activation license for each virtual template instance.
See page 9
for product catalog numbers.
The table includes topics that describe how to configure the PASS template.
If you already own individual product activations, these activations also can be
used to activate the virtual image templates.
