Expand the plug-ins by default when PI System Management Tools is opened

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...

Make the tuning parameter Base_AllowSIDLookupFailureForMapping visible by default

When this tuning parameter is enabled, it prevents a PI Collective from being flagged as out-of-sync when some of the PI Collective members can resolve the SID of a PI Mapping and others cannot. However, by default, this tuning parameter is hidden...

Accept weeks and years in the relative time syntax for history recovery start and end times

For whatever reason, times such as *-1w or *-1y are not accepted, but times such as *-1mo and *-1d are OK. Please make the PI Interface for RDBMS accept the same relative times that other PI programs accept.
