    Replace the batch (.bat) scripts in the %PISERVER% folder with PowerShell (.ps1) scripts

    This replacement is appropriate for several reasons: PowerShell is easier to read and is a more powerful language than the batch language. Batch scripts are best used in Windows, whereas PowerShell is cross-platform. This replacement will support ...

    Optimize and compress non-primary historic archive files

    Currently, the same file format is used for primary and non-primary historic archive files. This does not make much sense since the two types are used very differently. For the primary archive: Write operations should be fast since it is collectin...

    Users should be able to define display digits on Archive editor

    Currently the Archive editor doesn't allow users to define how many digits should be shown for the data values and it does not follow the DisplayDigits tag attribute setting. Users should be able to define how many digits to be shown.

    Have an option in AF Security to not pass down database security to newly created objects

    Hide Certain PI Point Attributes from Users

    Implement a way to hide the contents of a PI point attribute, specifically the Instrumenttag attribute. With many PI interfaces, the InstrumentTag attribute will store the IP address of the source, and we (as well as many other utilities) have a r...

    User rights for viewing analytics

    In many cases analytics should not be visible to everyone having right to view an AF-Database. Should be possible to direct whom should have view access to analytics. This is an extension to the obivious right to change analytics :)

    Security tool that allows management of PI Data Archive, Vision, and AF security settings

    PI System Administrators would benefit from a client or PI SMT extension that supports auditing and modifying user access. This includes mapping Active Directory roles to PI Identities, managing PI Database and Point access, managing AF Database a...

    Maximum security should be the default for the PI Data Archive and PI System Management Tools
