    Have pre-made PI Identities with minimum permissions by default

    It currently takes more effort to follow AVEVA's recommendation of setting minimum permissions for all PI service accounts than it is to use fewer service accounts with more permissions. To help steer PI administrators in the right direction, plea...

    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...

    Allow individual MSIs to be extracted from the PI Server 2018 install kit

    (from case 939560) I kindly request you add an enhancement request to allow individual MSIs to be extracted from the install kit. On numerous occasions, I’ve had upgrade/install failures that could be easily overcome by re-running the affected MS...

    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 ...
