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,...

Allow files to be processed similarly to, or better than, the PI Connector For UFL (in particular, allow data to be manipulated before using or archiving it)

The AVEVA Adapter For Structured Data Files is supposed to be the successor to the PI Connector For UFL, but they work differently enough that each can handle certain types of files better than the other. The AVEVA Adapter For Structured Data File...

Improve the search on community.aveva.com

The title is very general because the search is just bad in general. The search on pisquare.osisoft.com worked fine, but the search on community.aveva.com is bad to the point that I don't consider using it to find any answers to any of my problems...

Have the option to discover new data streams, auto-select them, and save data retrieved for them, all with a single query to the data source, similar to PI Connectors

Background + problem When PI Connector tries to save data for a tag that does not already exist (e.g. data for a new piece of equipment), it will create that tag automatically. This is very convenient, but it sometimes led to issues where data tha...

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...

Before publishing documentation, please review it, from start to finish, to catch and fix most issues

Whether I was trying to learn about a product before using it or trying to configure a product, I ended up reading most of the documentation of several new or somewhat new AVEVA products, including: AVEVA Adapter For RDBMS AVEVA Adapter For St...
