    Automate silent installation sequence

    We have 60+ sites, each with PI/AF Servers. We intent to deploy a PI to CONNECT Agents locally at each sites to federate our PI data in ADH. We need a supported mechanism to automate the installation sequence at each 60+ sites and connect/register...

    Accept HEX numbers for Register offsets in data selection

    Most modbus equipment providers provide information using registers in Hex format i.e. 0x0000 ~ 0xFFFF. It would be nice if the offset could accept this to avoid error in conversions HEX to DEC. Would make things alot more seamless/easier.

    Enable Intellisense for Communities in API Console

    Intellisense does not work for data from a Community, in the API Console. I expect this is because Community is a newly-released feature and the API Console must eb updated to support it.

    When PI AF Client is updated, update all install kits that contain PI AF Client

    A lot of times, install kits such as the one for PI DataLink contain an older version of PI AF Client than the one that is included in the PI AF Client install kit. To make things easier for customers, whenever PI AF Client is updated, consider u...

    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.

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

    Edit: NTLM authentication is deprecated. See https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/blog/windows-itpro-blog/advancing-windows-security-disabling-ntlm-by-default/4489526. After installation, the PI Analysis Service can run under a local account even i...

    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...
