Re-instate the default tags and random/ramp soak interfaces

These were removed from the 2018 SP3 install kit as OSI found many customers removed these tags and interfaces after installation. However, our experience is the opposite and these tags are massively useful for diagnostic, experimental and trainin...

Make the AF SQL scripts available for download in the Customer Portal

When configuring a CONNECT to PI Agent instance, entering an invalid name results in the message "Field does not fit the character requirements." However, the UI does not specify what the valid character rules are or which character(s) the user ha...

Update PI-AF install procedure to handle custom PIFD Naming

If hosting multiple AF DBs on a single SQL instance it is necessary to rename the PIFD default name to a unique name. For instance PIFD_<AFHostname> The current PI-AF install routine does not handle this situation - forcing a step to rename ...
