Allow OPC DA  Output Tags to capture OOO events

Allow PI Collective members to be permanently represented by alias names

For example, in PI SDK, when viewing "member setup" for a PI Collective, it is desired for the names of the members to always be represented as a DNS alias or SDK alias. At the outset of PI Collective creation, in PI Collective Manager for instanc...

Interface should reload performance counters after failover and keep track of them.

The interface should be designed to reload counters both at startup and when becoming the active interface after a failover. The interface should realize the counter is not available and periodically attempt to reload (ideally with a message to th...

Allow adding naming conventions

Administrating large systems require providing naming standards (for example when implementing international standards like ISA95) for various system elements: PI Point, AF DBs, Elements, Templates and so on. AVEVA software could support naming co...
