Option to cache values based on time range instead of # of Values

Currently when configuring how many cached values to store in the PIML Windows SQL database, you select a "Number of Values".  It would be nice if you could select a time range (e.g. 'The last 7 days') to preserve cached values as well. This...

Indicate how much localStorage space has been consumed by PI Manual Logger Web

Make a GUI for PI Backups for easy management

It would be interesting to have a GUI, maybe inside PI SMT, that would allow users to configure their PIBackups directly without having to mess around in 2-3 batch files. Checkboxes for the most common options, Active/inactive box etc. You could...

Store the timestamp an event arrives at the Data Archive, in addition to the timestamp of the event itself

Analysis Preview Results - No Graph

As a user I would like the ability to prevent "Preview Results" from generating a plot.  The plot takes a ton of time to fill in, and often, I care more about the actual data row-by-row than I do about the trend.  It's frustrating to kno...

Auto-Regroup PI Analytics

Behind the scenes, Analytics groups calculations during startup of the PI Analysis service.  However, after startup, sometimes an Analysis 'falls' out of a group and cannot be added back.  This returns the error message, "Failed to inser...
