PItoPI: Exception reporting is bypassed without /SN parameter

The PI to PI interface bypasses exception reporting when moving data from source to destination PI server. The alteration to the PI to PI architecture should be rectified in the next update of the PI to PI interface. There is an existing KI for th...

Reduce PI ICU Lauch Time

PI Interfaces are still very much widespread and as such PI ICU is used frequently by PI Engineers to create and configure interfaces to the PI System. PI ICU is a frequently used application but in the current layout, every time PI ICU is launche...

NLog for PI Batch Interfaces

PI Batch Interfaces 5.0 or later log messages to Windows Event Viewer, which can lead to them being quickly overwritten and making troubleshooting issues or performing root cause analyses more difficult. It would be great if they used NLog as othe...

PI Batch Interfaces (EFGEN) Reliability During Recovery Runs

The Batch interfaces currently handle recovery processes very unreliably which could end up stopping the whole AF server. We believe the stability of the interface running recoveries should be carefully handled to ensure the whole AF server enviro...

EMDVB Batch history query improvement to capture all rows for a batch

One of the queries of the EMDVB interface to the Batch History database are limited by the specific batch ID, but also the 'activatetime' and 'deactivatetime'. In our case this filters out 'Unit Alias Binding' rows, missing several updates for Uni...

PI EMDVB Interface should not use the STARTUP.dat to determine recovery start time when configured in Failover and running in RealTime mode.

Currently when the PI Interface for Emerson DeltaV Batch (EMDVB) is configured for failover and running in RealTime mode, the interface will use a recovery start time (RST) based on the last time the interface was active. This results in the inter...
