Allow selective AF Database indexing

The PI to CONNECT agent will index the whole AF server. On big ones, this is tedious (one took more than 12 hours) - would prefer to have the ability to choose either on the agent or from CONNECT which AF databases to index.

Sampling/Publishing Interval parameters to be part of Data Selection description

When configuring the AVEVA Adapters in general, we would find more convenient to be able to define the ‘Sampling Interval’ and 'Publishing Interval' parameters inside the ‘Data Selection’ configuration per each data stream. For instance, when desc...

Please add a feature for the OPC UA adapter to enable the adapter to only store values with a good status or rather filtering out bad values

When receiving bad values from the OPC UA Server to the adapter there is no option to filter out bad values. So these values get stored in the Data Archive and are causing problems with analyses (e.g. expression or Event Frame generation). At the ...

Add failover / high availability for the PI to AVEVA Data Hub Transfer Agent

Right now, the Transfer Agent is a single point of failure. We need to be able to install at least one additional Transfer Agent, on a separate host, so that we can guarantee that our PI System data will arrive in AVEVA Data Hub. This will also al...

Support derived templates

When replicating AF data to CONNECT, I would like to make sure that all assets configured from templates which are themselves based on derived templates, preserve the template inheritance. For instance, if I have a Mobile Equipment template, with ...

__ParentID metadata should be parent Asset ID, not parent element GUID in AF.

As a connect data services user, it is more helpful to me to know the parent asset id of my asset rather than its parent element GUID. This would allow me to more easily navigate the Asset hierarchy programatically.

Adapter for OPC UA to support Global Discovery Server

Currently, to manage the OPC UA Server/Adapter certificate, we have to manually move the certificate or get the certificate trusted beforehand. This is expected for self signed Application certificate for both the Server and the Client (Adapter). ...

PI Adapter for OPC UA should preiodically retry to subscribe to each node for which subscription failed at startup

Currently the PI Adapter for OPC UA tries to subscribe to all the OPC UA nodes configured in the Data Selection configuration at startup. However, when as issue occurs during the subscription to an OPC UA node, that node will not be included in da...

Enable Multiple PI to CONNECT agents for one PI Data Archive

Aside from our main AF Server setup used for numerous use cases like energy, OEE, etc, we have created a second environment of AF Server / AF Analysis / SQL Server to isolate the monitoring of a critical process. We are still making use of a singl...
