By default, do not install the PI Module Database Builder when the PI System Management Tools install kit is run

Similar to how the PI DataLink install kit included PI DataLink (Legacy) but required manual modification to setup.ini in order to install it (this was before PI DataLink Legacy was dropped from the PI DataLink install kit entirely), the PI Module...

Change process to release security patches

Have Platform Common services for PI use least privilege access on the Azure directory

Some Azure Active Directory (Entra ID) administrators will be hesitant to give the registered application for the AIM Server Directory.Read.All privileges. It should be feasible to give the application lesser privileges on the directory while stil...
