    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 the Client Failover Service through the AVEVA Adapter Configuration Utility or a separate optional GUI program

    Design some UI for PI Adaptors

    Design some UI for PI Adaptors, so it will be user friendly to configure the data source or data reading configurations etc. It is really hard to configure or troubleshoot an issue in PI Adaptor without Proper UI.

    Allow Adaptors to run in Docker

    Allow Adaptors to run in Docker. This would ease the roll-out and management of adaptors. Also new Cisco switches now allow Docker instances on the switch, limiting the need for extra hardware.

    Be able to save, name, and easily reuse query strings for data discoveries

    Currently, the query string of a data discovery is part of the data discovery, and once a data discovery is run, it cannot be rerun since part what identifies a discovery is the time at which it ran. This is not a flaw, but rather a part of the de...

    Be able to delete a discovery from the "⋮" menu in the "Discovery Details" pane

    Under a component, click on "Data Selection", then on the "Data Discovery" tab, and then on a discovery. This brings up the "Discovery Details" pane, and the "⋮" icon in the top right corner is greyed out and cannot be interacted with. However, it...
