    It would be interesting to have a GUI, maybe inside PI SMT, that would allow users to configure their PIBackups directly without having to mess around in 2-3 batch files. Checkboxes for the most common options, Active/inactive box etc. You could...

    Prevent PI-TAGs to be overwritten with new data for certain time range

    Normally our TAGs are filled with data coming from an analysis (or PI-Equation) by snapshot-data or recalculated data. But sometimes we have to do manual corrections due to data loss and have to write data to this PI-TAGs manually. And we are not ...

    Automated re-compression/average after a period of time

    As a PI Administrator, currently there is no way to compress or average (then delete) your data automatically after an event reaches a certain age. It would be nice to have the ability to automatically compress or average specific tags after the e...

    When backfilling tags from AF its very easy to update many archives. I would like the backup script to only require free space for archives that don't exist in the target folder. We have periodic incremental backup failures do to a lack of free di...

    Replace the batch (.bat) scripts in the %PISERVER% folder with PowerShell (.ps1) scripts

    This replacement is appropriate for several reasons: PowerShell is easier to read and is a more powerful language than the batch language. Batch scripts are best used in Windows, whereas PowerShell is cross-platform. This replacement will support ...

    Ability for admins to restrict PI Data query to 2 years at a time.

    I would like to restrict PI Vision users from pulling data for more than 2 years at a stretch. This setting should also restrict the PI Data link as well. This will make the software more robust to query timeout. Just let users know they need to a...
