Detect and monitor which OPC UA server the PI Adapter is connected to

When configuring a PI Adapter to leverage server-level redundancy, it is not currently possible to monitor which server instance the PI Adapter is connected to. Surfacing this information would allow server administrators to better monitor the hea...

Log bad timestamps for the PI RDBMS Interface

When the PI RDBMS Interface gets a bad timestamp from the source RDB that it cannot coerce into a PI Timestamp, the actual bad timestamp received from the RDB should be logged as part of the error message. This would coincide with the following e...

Automatically detect new AF Elements and replicate them to OCS

As an AF Administrator, when I add new equipment to our plant and create new elements/attributes in AF to represent that equipment, I want that to be automatically replicated to OCS so I don't have to manually update a PI to OCS transfer to force ...

Stream-level debugging

As a PI System Administrator, I'd like to be able to trace values being received, and subsequently being sent by the Adapter, similar to PI Interfaces. Having the ability to trace/log timestamps and values for specific streams would greatly help ...

Provide a streamlined way to rename streams and push the changes to the endpoint

The current process forces the user to modify the adapter configuration (DataSource for the prefix, DataSelection for the stream name) and the endpoint (PIDA, OCS). The adapter should support modifying directly the stream name and push those chang...

Supress PI-APS messages for Error -2147220428: Failed to create point on server. [-10550] Tag Already Exists in Table
