PI SMT's Current Values plug-in should have an option to not display comma separators for large numbers.

PI System Management Tools currently displays comma separators for large numbers. For example: 1,000,000. As a PI admin/user, it would be beneficial if there was an option to remove these commas.

Include Windows Counters/OMF Health for Message Log Event Rate

Having metrics that count the number of messages being written to the message log, and categorized by severity, gives a great dashboard overview of the status of PI data archive. For example, having a events/min count of error messages historized ...

Users should be able to define display digits on Archive editor

Currently the Archive editor doesn't allow users to define how many digits should be shown for the data values and it does not follow the DisplayDigits tag attribute setting. Users should be able to define how many digits to be shown.

Export Multiple Audit Logs into one XML/TXT File

The pidiag -xa utility doesn't support selecting a folder location and exporting the contents to a single XML/TXT file. This would be very helpful for bulk auditing actions.

Store a timestamp of when an event enters the archive database

We have a use case that could be solved very easy if we have had this as a column in the data archive. Use case: We have made PI data availible through an own made API to our clients. They use this API to fetch data from our database and into thei...
