    Rename overwritten archive files with new start time when using Archive_OverwriteDataOnAutoShiftFailure

    Asset Analytics should have a performance counter to indicate data loss on the UpdateManager queue

    Currently there is no way to know if Analytics missed important updates (e.g. start of a batch) without analyzing the message logs. However, the AFSDK does provide an indication on the DataPipe if the pipe is in an overflow state, allowing for a c...
