Ideas

Be able to reorder table columns

In any table, allow us to reorder columns by clicking and dragging them. This should make tables easier to read. For example, on the "Configuration" home page, I would prefer the "Host Name" column to come before the "Port" and "Path" columns. The...

Expand the configuration utility's Log view to include Component logs so users don’t need to open these seperately in Notepad.

As a administrator / engineer, I want the configuration utility to display and be able to filter component logs (OmfEgress + component logs, not just app logs) centrally so that I can troubleshoot faster without switching to view these logs in not...

Enable direct "in-grid editing" (and per-row dropdowns) in the configuration utility's Data Selection table to avoid export/edit/import for small changes.

As a admin, I want to edit Data Selection values directly in the table so that I can make a few quick changes without exporting to CSV/JSON and re-importing and appending or replacing. It would be helpful if Data Selection grid supports editable c...

Add Start/Stop controls for components in the configuration utility

As a system administrator / engineer, I want to start and stop an adapter component by its component ID from within the configuration utility so that I can quickly validate configuration changes and troubleshoot without switching tools. Currently,...

Add ability to check adapter level failover status

Currently it is not possible to check the adapter failover state in the utility. Still requires using edgecmd get failoverstate to check which adapter is primary / secondary and view failover score, adapter status and last processed time.

Include support for no Stream ID Prefix

Leaving the Stream ID Prefix empty in the utility for the components data source sets NULL in the .json file. This results in adding a prefix to the stream which can inadvertently cause new streams to be built in the data archive instead of sendin...

For PI Points created by AVEVA Adapters, use the point class "base" instead of "classic" if the PI Point does not use "classic"-specific PI Point attributes

When an AVEVA Adapter creates a new PI Point, it always uses the point class "classic", even if none of the attributes that are specific to this point class are ever used. Instead, AVEVA Adapters should create PI Points using the point class "base...

Be able to configure history recovery through the AVEVA Adapter Configuration Utility for AVEVA Adapters that support history recovery (e.g. OPC UA, RDBMS)

This is item #3 of this suggestion, posted as its own suggestion.

Be able to configure the Client Failover Service through the AVEVA Adapter Configuration Utility or a separate optional GUI program

The Client Failover Service suffers from the same issues as AVEVA Adapters before the AVEVA Adapter Configuration Utility was released: you need to constantly check against the documentation and make sure that you spelled parameters and their valu...
