    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...

    Currently, unsaved changes in the Archive Editor are silently discarded if the user refreshes the tab, closes the tab, performs a new search in the same tab, or exits PI System Management Tools. Please instead warn the user of their unsaved change...

    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...

    Make the tuning parameter PointDb_RemoveEmptySource visible by default

    This tuning parameter toggles the automatic deletion of unused point sources. By default, it is hidden and the automatic deletion is disabled. Point sources are used mainly for PI Interfaces, which are slowly being replaced with PI Connectors and...

    Expose "Tuning Parameters" in AFSDK

    It would be very intesting to access tuning parameters (that are present in PI SMT) via AFSDK. This is interesting when you have to manage dozens of PI DA servers and you want to ensure they are all correctly configured (and no change are performe...

    Have the PI OPC DA Server not rely on cache files (SavedNamespace.xml) for tag changes

    It would be beneficial to some customers to not have to restart the PI OPC DA Server or delete the SavedNamespace.xml in order to keep track of tag changes.

    Allow editing of the PI OPC DA Server ItemID

    The ItemID of PI tags retrieved using the PI OPC DA Server has a backslash. In order to maintain consistency with browsing for OPC tags on their client, is there a way to remove or replace the backslash in the ItemID? For example, .sinusoid instea...

    Easy selection of PI Archives to Backup

    Currently, if we want to do a backup of an archive in SMT, we have to tick it. But the customer may has like 500 archives and wants to copy 100 of them. There is currently no friendly-user way to select multiple archives (without unregister them) ...
