PI Vision install kit should check if there's any conflicting custom symbols before upgrading PI Vision

When custom symbol has same name as default symbols, after the upgrade it will not be visible on the web page. To flag the user, install kit should check and warn if there is any conflicting symbols.

Allow PI Server components to be removed at installation time

Currently, when you run the PI Server install kit to perform an upgrade, existing PI Server components cannot be unselected, and so they are upgraded. This gives the impression that they cannot be uninstalled, but they can actually be uninstalled ...

Allow NTLM-authenticated local accounts while installing PI Analysis Service on a computer other than the PI Asset Framework computer

After installation, the PI Analysis Service can run under a local account even if the PI Asset Framework is installed on a different computer, since NTLM authentication can be used between both computers. However, the PI Server install kit does no...

All-in-1 PI Client install kit

Similar to the PI Server install kit, there should be a PI Client install kit that packages all non-deprecated client-side PI programs together. See the comments for a list of programs.

Roll back to the older legacy installer, previous to PI System 2016 R2.

The integrated installer will not perform as expected, as there is no explicit way to preconfigure the MSIs required to install the PI System. This creates a very stressful scenario for very restricted environments. Please reach directly to me in...

Replace PI AF Client with PI AF SDK in install kits that contain PI AF Client

Currently, PI AF Client is listed as its own program in install kits that contain it. When it is time to install PI AF Client, the user gets to choose which components to install. However, in all install kits that contain PI AF Client other than t...
