Batch Framework Interfaces - Officially support fanning tag data to a PI Collective

Unlike other PI interfaces, the Batch Framework Interfaces do not use buffering. If the interface loses connection to the PI Data Archive, the interface continues collecting data and stores it in its local cache. The PI Batch Database is primary-o...

For PItoPI interface having a source PI-HA collective, allow failover on source automatically.

This enhancement would allow the PItoPI interface to treat a source PI collective as a collective, rather than requiring PItoPI failover to be specified for collective members.
Heather Boehler over 3 years ago in PI Interfaces / PI to PI Interface 3 Tell us more

Allow the UFL interface to delete PI tag data or provide some other supported automated method of deleting PI data from a collective.

There is no way to easily delete data in a time range if you want the changes to occur on both the primary and secondary data archive. It seems the UFL interface would be good to use to do this. You could provide it a tag name and time range and t...

DeltaV Smart Connector Enhancement

I think it would be a good idea to allow exception settings to be created. The DeltaV history collection settings only allow for compression. Since many/most users use 1/2 compression for their exception value then perhaps we could have a check bo...

Enhance pitopi.ini sections to include point source to make them unique

The pitopi.ini file is used by the pitopi interface for collecting data from multiple sources and to save other miscellaneous settings such as 'histonly' flags. The configuration ini file uses sections to separate settings between instances with a...

Allow automatic interface restart based on Device Status

In some cases, such as when using a tunneller, the PI interface for OPC DA requires a restart to resume collecting data. A feature that allows an automatic restart of the service based on the value of the Device status Health tag would avoid human...

Improve collection of Event Viewer logs in PI Interface for Microsoft Windows Event Log

The PI Interface for Microsoft Windows Event Log can capture Event Viewer Logs. Some of the logs in sub-folders cannot be captured by the interface. This includes logs that store PI information, such as PI Vision with the log: OSIsoft-PIVisualizat...

Support non-English Performance counter for PI PerfMon Interface

PI Interface for Performance Monitor can collect data from non-English Performance counters in version 1.x, but cannot in version 2.x. It would be good if version 2.x is also able to collect data from non-English Performance counters.

Alert user when the interface discards values

Example:  When using a distribution tag, the number of tags returned and number of values sent to PI can be mismatched, due to missing aliases or data that does not need to be collected. It would be helpful to identify what values are droppe...
