Thresholds for PI Points

It would be nice to have threshold attributes for pi points. Then we could configure that values received from the source outside this limits would be ignored (not stored), substituted by the respective threshold value or even by an "Over\Under Ra...

Method to backup and restore PI Points only

The PI backup tools currently do not have a method to backup only the files related to PI Points. The purpose of this would be to refresh the point table on a QA system from a production system. The current PI backup method is all or nothing.
