Allow restarting on a data source basis instead of having to restart the connector

Example 1 - OPC If a new connection needs to be made to one OPC Server, restarting the connector forces all data sources (and potentially connections to multiple OPC Servers) to be restarted. Example 2 - UFL If my web service is down and I do not...

When using the Tuning Parameter, "Archive_OverwriteDataOnAutoShiftFailure", the system uses the oldest registered archive as the new primary. But it keeps the name of the old archive. It would be very helpful if the archive subsystem could rename ...
