    Rename overwritten archive files with new start time when using Archive_OverwriteDataOnAutoShiftFailure

    When using the Tuning Parameter, "Archive_OverwriteDataOnAutoShiftFailure", the system uses the oldest registered archive as the new primary. But it keeps the name of the old archive. It would be very helpful if the archive subsystem could rename ...

    As a PI Administrator of a PI System with complex security requirements, I need to set up different default permissions for various users so they can create tags that automatically have the proper security instead of having to rely on a process/pr...

    Make it easier to get a list of buffered or unbuffered points on the PI Data Archive

    For PI System Administrators, it would be nice to be able to easily get a list of all buffered or unbuffered points on the PI Data Archive. Currently, a list of buffered points is possible to retrieve using 'piartool -bfs -ptlist', but a comprehe...

    Option to ignore the digital state set ID in historical archive record headers and just use the one in the latest or in the point database.

    If digital tags are found to be assigned to inappropriate digital state sets, changing the state set does not change historical data since the state set is also held in each archive record header. To correct the historical data, you have to offlin...

    Enable Data Fanning for PI Collectives through PI System Management Tools

    Currently, PI System Management Tools supports buffering but not data fanning (does not send data to all collective members). When using a PI Collective, customers would like to make changes to PI Point values in Archive Editor in the Primary Dat...

    Dedicate/reserve threads for PI server management.

    In the event of all the threads being consumed on a PI server a PI admin is unable to manage a PI server remotely. They must remote into the server and manage it from there. However, even from the server there are times where simple tasks like ope...

    PI SMT's Current Values plug-in should have an option to not display comma separators for large numbers.

    PI System Management Tools currently displays comma separators for large numbers. For example: 1,000,000. As a PI admin/user, it would be beneficial if there was an option to remove these commas.

    PI SMT's Archive Editor should support manually adding NULL values

    Archive Editor in PI System Management Tools should support writing NULL values (ie, empty strings). This is currently supported by other PI Clients. For example, it is possible to write empty strings using PI System Explorer as well as using a PI...
