This new feature of version WinCC 8.1 deserves a article :-)
Ten years ago, I wrote this post to implement this functionality... Of course, it had a lot to improve, but on more than one occasion it fulfilled its purpose ;-)
That said, you should know that with the application CCStartStop this functionality is included.
What functionalities does this application offer:
Code
CCStartStop.exe /?
Compared to the previous version WinCC V8.0, where we already had some functionalities :-)
Executed without arguments, it returns project information.
And to perform the backup while in Runtime.
Code
CCStartStop.exe /b /to:C:\Backups
And here is our online backup, where it is clear that what it does is a backup of the databases, so that the runtime does not have to be stopped :-)
