Put a PI Collective note directly on the Server List page

The PI Connector user guides mention "For a PI Data Archive collective, add each member of the collective to the PI Data servers list, not the collective itself." It would be useful to have this note directly on the Server List page.

Better support for IE

Some field values are missing or inaccurate when viewed through IE as compared to Chrome.  This was seen in the DCM UI and PSC UI for Data Source configuration.  Some IT environments are locked down to the point that IE built into the OS...

Do not silently overwrite PIPointPrefix.config.json when a PI Connector is upgraded

Currently, if you install a new version of a PI Connector, the PIPointPrefix.config.json file is silently overwritten and reverted back to the default. For users that do not use the default prefix, this means that data gets recorded in the wrong t...

Minify the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript code of the 1st-generation PI Connectors

The HTML code of the administration pages of these PI Connectors is over 3000 lines long and is very unoptimized. It also seems like most of the CSS and JavaScript code is inline and so is not taking full advantage of HTTP/2's multiplexing. Pleas...
