    How to fix errors that prevent users from creating new PI Points, other than restarting the services.

    Create "aliases" of a pipoint using attributes

    the idea is to have the possibility to assign a single tag more than one name, providing it a list of aliases in case of need. many tags in pi have names that were fine at the time they were created but after some years their name should be "chang...

    Currently, the AF Server will produce identical parameterized SQL queries for 2 AF Searches that search for the same object type with the same filters. On a large system, performing a search that produces a small result set can cause SQL Server to...

    In point builder, the number of tags you are working on is displayed in the top right corner. I'd like to suggest the same on the stale tags window. Why? I do systems administration on 380 controls machines across 68 power plants. Of those 380 mac...
