The Analysis Engine is initiated whenever the generation of a Stream Set or Alarm is requested. Users can do this by configuring Analysis Tasks in a Task Plan. Task Plans can be configured to run on a scheduled date at a scheduled time.
Form: Analysis Task Details

| Field | Description |

Forms: Archive Task
An Archive Task can be created to archive data no longer needed in PhixFlow for processing. When a Stream is archived, PhixFlow creates an Archive Log with useful details of the data archived. Optionally, the archived data can be saved to a file. If this is done, the data can reloaded into PhixFlow using Restore Archive.
Archive Tasks can be created in Task Plans.
