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...

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) ...

Add ability to honor archive list file locations when adding new server to PI HA Collective

PI SMT - Archive Editor Improvements

Why is the second server of all selected servers the default selected server for the archive editor? (C# index 1 instead of 0?) If I leave the Tagname empty and press the search button the tag search dialog opens fine. But if I enter some text at...

Increase Box Length for Tagname Field in Archive Editor
