    Support dynamic OPC addresses

    My OPC server's items have the OPC server node name included in the itemID, for example: serverA.AB_1234.PV. I have redundant OPC servers and redundant interfaces (in failover) and would like the tags to refer to the correct OPC address including ...

    Avoid reloading tags after edits of non-key PI Point attributes

    Currently, UniInt-based interfaces will reload a tag if edits are detected on any of the PI Point attributes. This is not ideal as edits to non-key attributes (such as EngUnits) will still cause a tag to be reloaded, potentially leading to data so...

    Interface should reload performance counters after failover and keep track of them.

    The interface should be designed to reload counters both at startup and when becoming the active interface after a failover. The interface should realize the counter is not available and periodically attempt to reload (ideally with a message to th...

    OPC DA, A&E historical recovery

    We have seen that the primary OPC interface will be connected but we don't see data coming across since the OPC server itself seems to have a problem. Since the connection is still active we won't failover to the secondary. We have to leave Notifi...

    OPC DA interface to read data for advise and polled tags at startup

    If digital tags are part of advise groups and the flag to write "Intf Shut" is enabled in the OPC DA interface, then digital tags can read "Intf Shut" for hours/days/weeks, if the value does not change after an interface restart (for example, 2 pu...

    Preferring a primary interface failover member

    hen the primary Interface becomes available and healthy again, it becomes "back up". I need the primary Interface to become the "primary" whenever it is healthy. https://pisquare.osisoft.com/thread/42591-revert-back-to-primary-data-collector
