Add option to clear buffer errors to the Buffering Manager

Currently users have to use the command line tools to clear buffer point errors. It would be useful and enhance O&M if these errors could be cleared directly from the UI rather than just viewed.Bonus points for allowing users to clear all, mul...

Allow PIWorld and piusers to be deleted

Nobody should be using the "PIWorld" PI Identity or the "piusers" PI Group. The most that we can do at the moment is disable them. It would be much better if we can just delete them and never look back.

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...

Provide a way to locate displays, reports and calculations using a particular PI Tag or AF Attribute

When changes need to be made to PI Tags, AF Models or calculations, it is important to locate all the places where the changed item is being used to aid in change management.

Improve performance of creating large numbers of new tags

I have three large customers who have experienced PI Data Archive performance issues when large numbers of tags are being created. Specifically, record locks seem to take an extra large time (e.g., more than 15 minutes) to clear, and data updates ...
