Control which PI/AF servers each data source sends data to.

Right now, for one instance of the connector, all configured data sources will send data to all configured PI Data Archives and PI AF Servers. It is all or nothing. Due to the fact that you cannot have multiple instances of the same connector on a...

Enable Relay/DCM to allow control over the data streams and destination PI Systems

Currently the Relay will send all data streams to all routed destination. This does not allow customers to have control over what data streams go to a specific destination. The only workaround is to have independent Connector/Relay pairs with spec...

Increase the default log size
