Reduce number of "Failure to Resolve 1 PI Point referenced by AF" errors logged in the event viewer

If there are multiple PI Points that cannot be resolved, these messages can quickly fill up the logs. Since event viewer only keeps so many messages by default, this can quickly overwrite other messages and result in a loss of information for trou...

PI Interface for OPC DA bitmask plugin with float data type

PI Interface for OPC DA has a plugin called "Bitmask" to extract specific bits from regular OPC values that are of type Int (i.e VT_I2 / VT_I4 / VT_UI2) but other data types such as floats are not supported. It would be good to have Float data typ...

Have the FTB Interface support multiple stop events for Unit Procedures

Have the FTB interface capture "Active Step Change Commencing" events as event frames

PI UFL ._OK file rename should be after parsing to avoid data loss during shutdowns

My understanding of UFL (confirmed by tech support) is that it will rename files to ._OK extension before loading lines into memory. This means that if the service is stopped (such as during an update) and it has not completely read into memory an...

Allow OMF Health Authentication on PI Interfaces to Negotiate

Currently the OMF Health feature of PI interfaces only allows the interface to connect to the PI Web API OMF endpoint using Basic authentication. It would be good to see negotiate and windows authentication as an option like PI Adapters have to co...

Unit testing for Microsoft Edge browser for PI Connectors administration

The tested browser from AVEVA is Google Chrome. However, some organizations typically use an official browser or a proffered browser like Microsoft Edge. For such scenarios it will be a good idea if Aveva does the end to end unit testing for the o...

PI System Connector - Support failover at the data source level

PI System Connector should be data source (collective aware) specific and always favor the data source in the better state. Furthermore, the PI System Connector should be able to determine whether data is stale on a given collective member, and au...

Improve collection of Event Viewer logs in PI Interface for Microsoft Windows Event Log

The PI Interface for Microsoft Windows Event Log can capture Event Viewer Logs. Some of the logs in sub-folders cannot be captured by the interface. This includes logs that store PI information, such as PI Vision with the log: OSIsoft-PIVisualizat...
