    State all of the missing dependencies when running the installer

    Remove the dependence on .NET Framework

    According to the documentation, the PI To CONNECT Agent requires both .NET Framework and .NET to be installed, which is odd since .NET is the successor to .NET Framework and so, in theory, you should need only .NET. Perhaps this shows that the PI ...

    Include the port number in service principal names (SPNs) when the port number is not (and never will be) configurable

    In particular, the PI Data Archive's port 5450 is not configurable and the PI Asset Framework's port 5457 is not configurable, and both programs require SPNs. The SPNs that are expected to be assigned to the service account of the PI Data Archive'...

    Currently, when the Data Cache is signed up for updates on multiple data archives, updates from each archive are fetched in series, one after another. When there are many data archives involved (especially if they are geographically dispersed) thi...

    Migrate the PI ICU settings away from the PI Module Database

    PI ICU settings are currently the main reason why the PI Module Database continues to live on even the most up-to-date PI systems. Please consider migrating the PI ICU settings from the PI Module Database to the PI Asset Framework or a separate fi...

    Provide the possibility to manually select replication of tag attributes as stream metadata. Besides None, Low, Medium, High in the Stream Metadata Replication Policy of a transfer there should be a "Custom" option to select additional tag attribu...

    Control which PI/AF servers each data source sends data to.

    Right now, for one instance of the connector, all configured data sources will send data to all configured PI Data Archives and PI AF Servers. It is all or nothing. Due to the fact that you cannot have multiple instances of the same connector on a...
