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...

Compression on CONNECT to PI related tags

The tags use the default compression settings since they are automagically created through PI WebAPI if CONNECT to PI agent starts sending the transfer. This can mean that there is another compression applied to the tags. But as we are already cop...

Ua Server force failover / improve failover logic

Let me preface this by saying that I know it is a workaround for a non-compliance with the OPC UA specifications. The point is that the situation described below is unfortunately all too common and the workaround is needed. It often happens that t...

PI to CONNECT should have a verification tool to make sure there are no gaps in the data
