Allow AF to use any PI Point metadata (descriptor, UoM, Compression, etc.) as Attributes.

Some metadata can be used in Analyses, which is helpful, but means constantly running an analysis on static data in order to use it at all in AF, which is inefficient, and we have been told to pull in data as a linked table into AF, which seems un...

PI Data Archive: Improve piarchss performance

PI Archive Subsystem should be able to use operating memory more efficiently. For example by loading as many non-primary archives into its process memory as possible (perhaps it could be affected by a user setting).

High availability options with Big-IP F5 for Notifications and Analytics instead of only Windows Clustering?

We have redundant servers for AF components (Notifications & Analytics). In a virtual environment, our IT doesn't support Windows Clustering due to the way storage is implemented enterprise wide. What does it take to support F5? Our IT engin...
