Database Structure
Project information is stored in both the drawings and databases Changes are committed to drawings on save SQLite databases are DCF files:
ProcessPower.dcf – P&ID database Piping.dcf – 3D piping database Iso.dcf – Isometric database Ortho.dcf – Orthographic database

Database Engines
File based Self-contained (serverless) Database locking
Server based Client/Server Row locking

System Requirements for SQL Server
Supported versions of SQL Server: Microsoft SQL Server Express 2005 (4GB per database limitation) Microsoft SQL Server Express 2008 (10GB per database limitation) Microsoft SQL Server Enterprise/Standard 2005 or 2008 (no database limitations)
Supported Hardware and OS: Minimum 1.4GHz CPU (2.0GHz or greater recommended) Minimum 512MB of RAM (1.0GB or more recommended) Windows Server 2003 or 2008 Windows 7, Vista Windows XP (32-bit only)

Creating & Migrating Projects to SQL
© 2011 Autodesk
Creating a new Plant 3D 2011 project on SQL
Switch database mode from SQLite to SQL Server PLANTCONFIGUREDATABASE
New projects will now be setup with SQL databases Existing SQL projects can be opened Use Project Setup Wizard to create new project on SQL
© 2011 Autodesk
Creating a new Plant 3D 2012 project on SQL
No need to switch database modes Create new project and select SQL Express server database Enter SQL Server info That’s it!
© 2011 Autodesk
Migrate Existing Plant 3D 2011 project to SQL
Back up the project Run PnPSQLServerConverter.exe Specify existing project XML SQL server name/instance Enter database name prefix Project DCFs will be migrated and used as XML
configuration files

Migrate Existing Plant 3D 2012 project to SQL
Back up the project Run Project Maintenance Utility Select Convert a project to SQL Express Specify existing project XML Specify SQL Server & instance name Specify authentication mode Project DCFs will be migrated and used as XML
configuration files

Moving & Copying Projects
© 2011 Autodesk
Moving and copying SQL Projects
New projects can still be created from existing projects using Project Setup Wizard
Moving and copying is a manual procedure in Plant/P&ID 2011
Use Project Maintenance Utility in 2012 Back up the project first
© 2011 Autodesk
Moving and Copying Plant 3D 2011 Projects
Project .DCF files (XML format) define the SQL server configuration Moving only project files – no change needed in XMLs Copying a project – copy project files then copy SQL databases Update project XML configuration to point to new server
© 2011 Autodesk
Moving and Copying Plant 3D 2012 Projects
No manual changes required to .DCF XML files Use Project Maintenance Utility (PnPProjectMaintenance.exe) Move Project Database – only moves SQL databases, not the project files Copy Project Database – only copies SQL databases, not the project files

SQL Queries & ODBC Links
© 2011 Autodesk
Connection to SQL using MS Excel
Custom Reports through data link
Launch MS Excel Get External Data from SQL Server Enter SQL Server information Select database and table to import
© 2011 Autodesk
Connection to SQL using MS Excel
Imports “live” project Data into MS Excel Data import is read only (one way link) Use Refresh to update with latest data
© 2011 Autodesk
MS Query using MS Excel
Configure user DSN in ODBC Data Sources Select tables and columns to include Setup filters and sort order Data from the query can be sent to MS Excel or viewed directly in
MS Query

Tips & Tricks
Database Backup Routine
After migrating projects to SQL Server keep in mind that the databases are stored on the SQL server while the project files are stored in a separate location. Make sure to update your backup routine accordingly
© 2011 Autodesk
Tips & Tricks
Project Maintenance Routine
To ensure database consistency run project audit periodically Verifies the data stored in the database against the data stored
in the drawings Auditing the project will remove tag numbers that are used in
the database but not in a drawing

Tips & Tricks
Project Portability
Before migrating to SQL Server consider your field site employees and remote offices
Will they have a fast, reliable connection to the SQL Server at the home office?
Workaround - create a new project from an existing template project then copy drawings into the SQL Server project

Tips & Tricks
Network Performance
One of the best ways to increase performance of AutoCAD Plant 3D and AutoCAD P&ID is to use a gigabit network
Most desktops, laptops, and servers today already have a gigabit Ethernet connection built-in
Using a 10/100Mbps network switch to connect to your server will limit the connection down to 100Mbps
