The Attribute Name to ID Conversion tool is designed to run during the Metasys Server installation or upgrade without user interaction. You only need to launch the tool if the database conversion is unable to automatically process the conversion without user interaction.

If the database conversion fails during the Metasys Server installation, you need to launch the tool manually. The tool is located in the Tools folder of the MetasysIII installation folder (C:\Program Files (x86)\Johnson Controls\MetasysIII\Tools). The folder contains the Convert Attribute Names to IDs for Trend link. Double-click this link to launch the Attribute Names to ID Conversion Wizard, which allows you to manually complete the conversion process. See Manually Launching the Attribute Name to ID Conversion Tool for more information on how to launch the tool.
