The original Task 14 (5-min EF migration that "drops ConfigGeneration") was
under-scoped: the design doc (live-edit model, ~line 208) requires removing
GenerationId from 13 entities (Equipment, DriverInstance, Device, Tag,
PollGroup, Namespace, UnsArea, UnsLine, NodeAcl, Script, VirtualTag,
ScriptedAlarm) and adding RowVersion columns for last-write-wins detection.
That cascades into GenerationApplier / GenerationDiff / GenerationSealedCache
and the legacy Server/Admin CRUD services.
New decomposition (~85 min total, replacing the original 5-min estimate):
14a standard 10m Add RowVersion to live-edit entities
14b high-risk 30m Drop GenerationId FK from those entities
14c high-risk 20m Obsolete GenerationApplier/Diff/SealedCache
14d standard 5m Drop ClusterNode.RedundancyRole
14e small 5m Delete ConfigGeneration + ClusterNodeGenerationState
14f high-risk 15m Consolidator: generate V2HostingAlignment migration
Policy decision (recorded with user): OtOpcUa.Server + OtOpcUa.Admin are
allowed to fail-to-compile between 14b and Task 56 - only the new v2 projects
need to stay green. Task 56 deletes the legacy projects.
Plan markdown: replaces the original Task 14 section with the 6-task
decomposition + a header explaining the rewrite. Task index table at the
bottom of the plan updated.
Tasks JSON: replaces the single Task 14 row with 6 string-id rows
("14a", "14b", ..., "14f"). Task 15 (Migrate-To-V2.ps1) and downstream
consumers re-pointed at "14f".
Verification step in 14f rewritten to use the shared docker host at
10.100.0.35 per CLAUDE.md (Docker is not installed on this Mac dev VM).
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 Wonderware Historian read-back: optional
OtOpcUaWonderwareHistoriansidecar — see docs/ServiceHosting.md
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.Server
The server starts on opc.tcp://localhost:4840 with the None security profile. Configure Security.Profiles in src/Server/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Server/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 (and optionally the OtOpcUaWonderwareHistorian sidecar) under a chosen service account. Galaxy support requires a separately installed mxaccessgw — neither this repo nor the install script provisions it.
.\scripts\install\Install-Services.ps1 `
-InstallRoot 'C:\Program Files\OtOpcUa' `
-ServiceAccount 'DOMAIN\svc-otopcua'
Add -InstallWonderwareHistorian for the historian sidecar. 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
