What happens when I pause my element?

To be able to access the trend information while the device is no longer being polled we put the element to a paused state.
When an element is paused will it drop all the connections between the DMA and the device or will it only pause the communication?

Refer DataMiner Help:

  • Paused: Communication between the DMA and the element has been paused, but the virtual IP address of the element is still active. This means that the element and all associated resources can still be accessed.
  • Stopped: Communication between the DMA and the element has been stopped and the virtual IP address of the element has been destroyed.

Hi Karel,

Thanks for your response.
Based on the description from the help I’m not sure if the socket connections are closed or if the communication is only paused.
Do you know?
