Write an error message to logs when no destination PI Data Archive is specified

Ran into this problem when configuring a new UFL connector. After install, I went straight to configuring my .ini--forgetting to add the PI Data Archive (in fact, the connector was actually installed on the DA node). I had the text files coming ...

Make "Cancel" a button, not a link

In the configuration page of any data source, there is a "Save" button and a "Cancel" link. This is unnecessarily inconsistent. Please make "Cancel" a button.

Better error handling in DCM UI

For some cases where disallowed or poor configuration causes unexpected behavior, the UI should give a visual indicator and explanation.  Two examples: 1. No write access for Relay to AF DB when using the PSC.  Result: replication of AF ...

Support Failover at the data source level

For PI Connector (1.x) that support failover like OPC UA, failover will only occur when all data sources get into a bad state. Failover should not have to be configure at the PI Connector node level, but for each data source. Use case 1: If 3 con...

Connectors should support a Send Rate parameter

Connectors need adapt to many different types of networks, in both configuration and quality (latency, etc.) of the data transfer. One of the features that interfaces had, but connectors still lack, is the ability to batch the values sent to PI an...

"Connected" to invalid PI Data servers

If I add an invalid PI Data server in the Server List page, the PI Connector will say that it is connected to this data source. The status only becomes "Error" when the PI Connector tries to save data to this server. Please change this so that inv...

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...

Ability to update the AF Server name in Data Collection Manager without Recreating the Destination

Currently, it is not possible to update the AF Server name in the DCM without recreating the Destination. This process is prone to errors since the configuration for the AF and PI Data Archive servers needs to be recreated. Having the ability to ...

Share PI server configuration information across all PI Connectors by default

In most cases, the same PI Data server and the same PI Asset server will be used for all PI Connectors that a customer is using, so it makes sense to propagate the most recently inputted PI server configuration information to all PI Connectors by ...
