Add Event IDs to event logging

Currently, events logged for the OPC UA Connector all have an Event ID of 0. I've had to dig around in Event Viewer quite a bit for troubleshooting, and it's frustrating not to be able to filter events by ID. I mention the UA Connector because tha...

Have a consistent presence of a terminating \ in the PIHOME and PIHOME64 environment variables

By default, PIHOME is "C:\Program Files (x86)\PIPC" and PIHOME64 is "C:\Program Files\PIPC\". For new installations, please consider either having the terminating \ on both or removing the terminating \ from both. The current inconsistency can con...

Remove PI System Explorer (Legacy 32-bit) from PI AF Client

When PI AF Client is installed, it includes a program called "PI System Explorer (Legacy 32-bit)". Please remove this from PI AF Client. The continued support of 32-bit PI AF SDK makes sense, since 3rd-party programs may still depend on the 32-bit...

The PI Server Installation kit should list the PI software requirements sooner in the install

As a PI System Administrator, I would like the PI Server Installation kit to list out any PI Software that will be included with a selected role or feature before the Summary step so that I can determine what will be installed without having to fi...

Write an error message to logs when no destination PI Data Archive is specified

Ran into this problem when configuring a new UFL connector. After install, I went straight to configuring my .ini--forgetting to add the PI Data Archive (in fact, the connector was actually installed on the DA node). I had the text files coming ...

Make "Cancel" a button, not a link

In the configuration page of any data source, there is a "Save" button and a "Cancel" link. This is unnecessarily inconsistent. Please make "Cancel" a button.

Use units in the attribute templates of the element templates that PI Connectors create

Currently, all of the attribute templates of the element templates that PI Connectors create have their unit stated in their description but do not have a Default UOM assigned to them. Please assign Default UOMs to the attribute templates to save ...

Better error handling in DCM UI

For some cases where disallowed or poor configuration causes unexpected behavior, the UI should give a visual indicator and explanation.  Two examples: 1. No write access for Relay to AF DB when using the PSC.  Result: replication of AF ...

OMF Support PI Connector Relay

Keep the OMF support in PI Connector Relay, also add the new OMF Versions to it not just only OMF 1.0. Not just leave the OMF support to the PI WebAPI. In many customer scenarios, the PI Connector relay is an easier solution than PI WebAPI.

Simple, readable, user-friendly names for all downloadable files

OSIsoft's downloadable files are inconsistently named; use hyphens (-), underscores (_), and concatenations instead of spaces; and sometimes contain unnecessary abbreviations. For users who keep their OSIsoft files in the same folder, this means e...
