Simulator server contains what type of data .

Please can anybody say the simulator server stores what type of data.

The simulator actually does not store data at all, just algorithms for generating sample time series data. Time series data is what you would retrieve from a historian or OPC data source.

Each time you run a Tag Query and retrieve data from the Simulator you get a freshly generated data set according to the algorithm. This can be somewhat limiting since you will not have a static "history".

If you can find an tag in Simulator which is similar to your data or expectations you can create a new Simulator datasource with your own tags. This can be done at Data Services -> Simulator Editor in version 12.0 and above. Here is the link to the help to do so [http://help.sap.com/saphelp_mii121/helpdata/en/43/e80b59ad40719ae10000000a1553f6/frameset.htm]
