    PI AutoPointSync status bar resize

    In the PI AutoPointSync (APS) Configuration and Management Utility, there is a status bar in the bottom right corner that indicates the status and time of the currently syncing interface. If the server's name is long enough, this field gets trunca...

    RDBMS Interface version that support the failovertime > 20s (UFO_Interval)

    If you have a query that lasts longer than 40s and a phase2 failover configuration is used. The interfaces switch constantly from primary to secondary and viceversa. With the parameter "UFO interval" you can control this behavior. However, this pa...

    Allow renaming of diagnostic tags for batch interfaces

    Batch interfaces should follow a similar approach to UniInt based interfaces to retrieve the diagnostic tags. That is to say they should pull the diagnostic tags based on the PointSource, Location1, and ExDesc, not a hardcoded name based purely on...

    Support for Key Pair Authentication

    Currently, PI ICU authentication relies on traditional username/password methods. However, this authentication approach is becoming increasingly obsolete and is not supported by many of the modern platforms and security frameworks we are required ...

    Please add product name (eg 2018 SP2) to the version information in PI SMT

    You have to translate between software version (eg 3.4.445.688) and the product name (eg 2018 SP2) by searching for a document in support. It would make sense to show the product name in PI SMT alongside the software version

    Allow PI Points to use the UOM database in PI AF

    The Engineering Unit attribute of PI Points does not offer the same robustness as UOMs, which are only available in PI AF. Also, the user must set both the PI Point Engineering Unit and the element attribute UOM manually and separately, which is r...

    Remove deleted PI Identities from everywhere that they are used

    Currently, if you delete a PI Identity that is still being used, the deletion will succeed and the PI Identity gets renamed to a number everywhere that it is used. This doesn't do much good, since the number does not reveal what the PI Identity us...

    Provide "Point Last Accessed" information to determine clients' use of PI Points

    It would be useful to be able to determine when (or even if) a PI Point was last accessed by a client application to retrieve its data.  This would enable redundant points to be identified and removed. Alternatively/additionally some form of...

    For PItoPI interface having a source PI-HA server, allow failover on source without using PI interface status utility.

    For PItoPI interface having a source PI-HA server, allow failover on source without using PI interface status utility. This should allow failover based on connectivity and/or a watchdog (like failover if a specific tag stay stale for a configurabl...

    Allow the UFL interface to delete PI tag data or provide some other supported automated method of deleting PI data from a collective.

    There is no way to easily delete data in a time range if you want the changes to occur on both the primary and secondary data archive. It seems the UFL interface would be good to use to do this. You could provide it a tag name and time range and t...
