Start/stop components to be retained on restart

Currently it is possible to stop a component for a running adapter. However, if the adapter is restarted the component will automatically start up. It would allow for extra control during commissioning, downtime, incidents, etc. to be able to disa...

Egress via AF SDK

Please add AF SDK Egress as an additional optional egress component. This would be very helpful for customers who are using the adapters, but keeping the PI Server on-premise. The adapters are relatively light-weight services; however, the “cost” ...

Support Kerberos for adapters on Linux

Adapters are supported on Ubuntu, which also provides support for Kerberos (https://documentation.ubuntu.com/server/explanation/intro-to/kerberos/) Adding Kerberos support would increase the options for deploying adapters securely.

Include buffering metrics in adapter health

In the OmfEgress component in adapter health the metrics are limited to DeviceStatus, and IO rate. Another key metric for this component is the buffering state. To keep it simple it would be useful to have the number of events in the buffer. This ...

Support "Data Handling" options for adapters

The PI Interface for OPC DA can write IO timeout when it cannot get values from the OPC server. It would be useful to have the same option for the adapters so that stale data is marked IO timeout or similar, and automatically invalidates calculati...

Support for additional Complex Data Types for all Adapters

Request to enhance the Adapters to support more complex data types, specifically value/quality pairs. While some Adapters currently support geolocation and coordinate complex data types, they do not all support value/quality data types. In industr...

Include [optional] unit of measure in the data selection configuration.

Some data sources do not provide a unit of measure. It would be useful to be able to specify the unit of measure as part of the data configuration so that this information is provided to EDS/PI/ADH through the data flow.
