    Reprocess fixed archives to dynamic or visa versa

    Apply correct localhost.tz file during PI Data Archive installation

    To account for the different historical implementations of Daylight Saving Time in different regions, a localhost.tz file is added to the %piserver%\dat directory after installation. As an installer of PI Data Archive, I would like the localhost.t...

    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).

    2 timestamps for future data tags

    Currently, if you want to store predictions for 1 day, 2 days, 3 days, etc. into the future, you must create a different PI tag for each distance into the future. Future data tags should support 2 timestamps: the timestamp that the predicted valu...

    Allow bi-temporal data archiving

    PI DA Server should allow for more flexibility in terms of the format of archived data. A big advantage would be if PI could archive two timestamps per event. One timestamp will come from whatever the data source is (PI Interfaces, fiels devices, ...

    Thresholds for PI Points

    PI Server should recover from any ungraceful shutdown

    Make a GUI for PI Backups for easy management

    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...
