Add additional Analysis Search Criteria options to PSE Management

It would be helpful if you could search by Element Category or Element Description when searching for Analyses in PSE. My setup is 5 templates (CHW, Water, HW, Electric, Steam), each of which have accounts that can come from 5 different sources (s...

Incremental backups are not possible because of frequent backfilling

Occasional back filling of data would cause 5 TB of archives to be backed up with incremental backups. This is frustrating because only a few KB of data is changed in each archive. Can OSIsoft provide a way to backup only the data that has changed...

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...

Add array sorting function to AF Analytics.

This would also enable calculation of percentiles. Percentile calculation would also be possible if the user could use nested substitution parameters in array functions. For example: RecVals := RecordedValues('Attribute1', start, end) CountLowe...

Add documentation to AF Databases

As we adopt more and more AF databases as part of how we do business, the ability to easily maintain them becomes more and more important. We have created documents to detail the business process flow to follow to update AF databases, but these a...
