Register both v3 namespaces (Raw first, UNS second) on OtOpcUaNodeManager and thread an AddressSpaceRealm discriminator through every node-naming sink method so a bare node id is resolved to the correct namespace by realm — never parsed out of the id string. - IOpcUaAddressSpaceSink / ISurgicalAddressSpaceSink: every node-naming method gains `AddressSpaceRealm realm = AddressSpaceRealm.Uns` (transitional default so un-migrated WP3 call sites still compile; WP3/Wave B makes them explicit and removes the default). Null + SdkAddressSpaceSink impls updated; DeferredAddress- SpaceSink forwards realm through every method (the forwarding trap). - DeferredSinkForwardingReflectionTests: existing exhaustive-forwarding guard auto-covers the new signatures; added an explicit guard that every node-naming sink method carries an AddressSpaceRealm parameter (RebuildAddressSpace exempt). - OtOpcUaNodeManager: register RawNamespaceUri + UnsNamespaceUri; realm->namespace index via NamespaceIndexForRealm; all node maps (_variables/_folders/ _alarmConditions/_nativeAlarmNodeIds/_historizedTagnames/_eventNotifierSources) re-keyed by the full ns-qualified NodeId string so Raw and UNS nodes sharing a bare id stay distinct; _notifierFolders already NodeId-keyed. A historized UNS reference node registers the SAME historian tagname as its backing raw node (both NodeIds -> one tagname). Inbound-write hook routes the full ns-qualified NodeId to the write gateway (realm-aware) and reverts by bare id + realm. HistoryRead seams resolve via NodeId directly. DefaultNamespaceUri kept as a transitional alias to UnsNamespaceUri for the SubscriptionSurvivalTests. - Test doubles across Commons.Tests / OpcUaServer.Tests / Runtime.Tests updated to the new interface signatures; SdkAddressSpaceSinkTests asserts the UNS namespace index for default-realm nodes. Build: dotnet build ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.slnx = 0 errors. Tests: Commons.Tests 310/310; OpcUaServer.Tests 335 passed / 4 pre-existing skips.

OtOpcUa
OPC UA server (.NET 10 AnyCPU) that exposes a fleet of industrial drivers as a single OPC UA address space. Drivers ship in-process for AVEVA System Platform Galaxy (via the sibling mxaccessgw repo), Modbus TCP, Siemens S7, Allen-Bradley CIP (ControlLogix / CompactLogix), Allen-Bradley Legacy (SLC 500 / MicroLogix), Beckhoff TwinCAT (ADS), FANUC FOCAS, and OPC UA Client (gateway).
A cross-platform client stack (.NET 10) — shared library, CLI, and Avalonia desktop app — connects to any OPC UA server.

MXAccess COM (x86 worker, on AVEVA box)
Galaxy is the only driver with an external runtime: it speaks gRPC to a separately installed mxaccessgw server (sibling repo at c:\Users\dohertj2\Desktop\mxaccessgw\) which owns the MXAccess COM apartment and the x86/STA bitness constraint server-side. Everything in this repo is platform-agnostic .NET 10.
Prerequisites
- .NET 10 SDK (server, drivers, clients all target .NET 10)
- SQL Server reachable for the central config DB
- For Galaxy specifically: a running
mxaccessgwdeployment — see docs/v2/Galaxy.ParityRig.md - For historian read-back / alarm history / continuous historization: a running
ZB.MOM.WW.HistorianGatewaydeployment (the sole historian backend; consumed as theZB.MOM.WW.HistorianGateway.ClientgRPC package). It must runRuntimeDb:Enabled=true+RuntimeDb:EventReadsEnabled=true, and the API key must carryhistorian:read+historian:write+historian:tags:writescopes.
Quick Start
dotnet restore ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.slnx
dotnet build ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.slnx
dotnet test ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.slnx
# Run the server in dev (foreground)
dotnet run --project src/Server/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Host
The server starts on opc.tcp://localhost:4840 with the None security profile. Configure Security.Profiles in src/Server/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Host/appsettings.json to enable Basic256Sha256-Sign or Basic256Sha256-SignAndEncrypt. See docs/security.md.
Install as Windows Services
Production deployment is driven by scripts/install/Install-Services.ps1, which registers the OtOpcUa server service under a chosen service account. Historian support requires a separately deployed ZB.MOM.WW.HistorianGateway and Galaxy support a separately installed mxaccessgw — neither this repo nor the install script provisions them.
.\scripts\install\Install-Services.ps1 `
-InstallRoot 'C:\Program Files\OtOpcUa' `
-ServiceAccount 'DOMAIN\svc-otopcua'
The historian backend is the external ZB.MOM.WW.HistorianGateway (not installed by this script). See the script header and docs/ServiceHosting.md for full options.
Client CLI
dotnet run --project src/Client/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Client.CLI -- connect -u opc.tcp://localhost:4840
dotnet run --project src/Client/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Client.CLI -- browse -u opc.tcp://localhost:4840 -r -d 3
dotnet run --project src/Client/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Client.CLI -- read -u opc.tcp://localhost:4840 -n "ns=2;s=SomeNode"
dotnet run --project src/Client/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Client.CLI -- write -u opc.tcp://localhost:4840 -n "ns=2;s=SomeNode" -v 42
dotnet run --project src/Client/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Client.CLI -- subscribe -u opc.tcp://localhost:4840 -n "ns=2;s=SomeNode" -i 500

The original v1 in-process MXAccess docs (Galaxy.Host topology, Configuration env vars, AlarmTracking, DataTypeMapping, HistoricalDataAccess, Subscriptions, etc.) are preserved under docs/v1/ — historical reference only. PR 7.2 retired the v1 architecture on 2026-04-30; current state is documented in the sections above.
