Specify stream properties in a CONNECT to PI transfer

Include a way to select (or filter out) different properties of a stream used in a CONNECT to PI transfer so that we can control the PI tag/s created.

Add another Archive Mode option for the PI Interface for UFL

There should be a way to configure the PI UFL interface to both discard duplicate events (same value at the same timestamp) and record multiple unique values for the same timestamp when these events come from multiple data files. For example, if...

PI Adapter High Availability Resilience

Problem Summary: The client failover service for PI adapter is not highly available. If the client failover service node is unavailable, then the PI adapter instances that it manages will lose failover functionality. This is further exacerbated if...

Provide a streamlined way to rename streams and push the changes to the endpoint

The current process forces the user to modify the adapter configuration (DataSource for the prefix, DataSelection for the stream name) and the endpoint (PIDA, OCS). The adapter should support modifying directly the stream name and push those chang...

API to check Adapter buffer statistics

We can check buffer statistics with PI Buffer subsystem (pibufss -cfg, qs) and also with PI Connector/Relay, to verify whether Buffer is healthy, events in queue and etc.Adapter does not has any API to check this.

Permit non-protected references

The secrets references is a very useful addition but they are only permitted for "protected" parameters. It would be useful to also create references for non-protected parameters. Using references for non-protected parameters would help with creat...

When configuring a CONNECT to PI Agent instance, entering an invalid name results in the message "Field does not fit the character requirements." However, the UI does not specify what the valid character rules are or which character(s) the user ha...

Support Kerberos for adapters on Linux

Adapters are supported on Ubuntu, which also provides support for Kerberos (https://documentation.ubuntu.com/server/explanation/intro-to/kerberos/) Adding Kerberos support would increase the options for deploying adapters securely.
