Configuring remote PACS Store and Remember destinations that send back from multiple AE titles

Some sites may want to have their studies mirrored at another site through a PACS Archive Provider (PAP) which uses PACS Store and Remember archiving. (When configuring a PACS for mirroring using PACS Store and Remember archiving, each PACS is set up with another local archive besides the PACS Store and Remember archive.) This mirroring protects against loss of data and allows studies at one PACS to be viewed at another. This can be achieved effectively using a PAP.

When IMPAX retrieves studies from a remote archive, the studies may, in some configurations, be sent back from an AE title other than the one that received the C-MOVE (retrieval) request from IMPAX. To support such a configuration, update the IMPAX map_ini file with the names of all AE titles that may fulfill retrieval requests.

Note:
Note:
For the PAP to automatically register studies as PACS archived, at least one open PACS volume must exist. When a PACS Store and Remember archive is installed, ensure that it works by storing a study to the archive, then retrieving it back from the archive.

To configure remote PACS Store and Remember destinations that send back from multiple AE titles

Determine the AE titles that belong to the PACS that the PACS Store and Remember archive stores to and remembers from.
Ensure that the AE title matches the AE title used when defining the station in Network Management.

The AE title is case-sensitive.
Launch CLUI.
To add the entry to the map_ini table, type
insert into map_ini (ini_section, ini_key, ini_value) values ('scu_ae_title', 'PACS_ARCHIVE_AE_TITLES', 'other_ae_titles')

where scu_ae_title is the AE title of the machine with the SCU drive queue (which receives the retrieval requests) and other_ae_titles is the comma-separated list of AE titles that may send the images back.
Note:
When configuring a PACS for mirroring using PACS Store and Remember archiving, set up each PACS with another local archive besides the PACS Store and Remember archive.

Next, perform additional configurations to manage HIS verification, routing, and study status defaults for the PAP.
