Add Event IDs to event logging

Currently, events logged for the OPC UA Connector all have an Event ID of 0. I've had to dig around in Event Viewer quite a bit for troubleshooting, and it's frustrating not to be able to filter events by ID. I mention the UA Connector because tha...

Write an error message to logs when no destination PI Data Archive is specified

Ran into this problem when configuring a new UFL connector. After install, I went straight to configuring my .ini--forgetting to add the PI Data Archive (in fact, the connector was actually installed on the DA node). I had the text files coming ...

Support for Windows event logging

As a system administrator, I need to integrate PI System logging into my SEIM, so that I can manage PI System events consistent with other applications in a centrally managed system. Most PI System applications leverage the Applications and Serv...

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...
