Rebuild Range¶

Rebuild range

The back filler has to be enabled for this purpose. The back filling process does not remove data but just overwrites it. That means that if the parameter replay returns less parameters than originally stored in the archive, the old parameters will still be found in the archive.

It also means that if a replay returns the parameter of a different type than originally stored, the old ones will still be stored. This is because the parameter archive treats parameter with the same name but different type as different parameters. Each of them is given an id and the id is stored in the archive.
