You have to translate between software version (eg 3.4.445.688) and the product name (eg 2018 SP2) by searching for a document in support. It would make sense to show the product name in PI SMT alongside the software version

The Engineering Unit attribute of PI Points does not offer the same robustness as UOMs, which are only available in PI AF. Also, the user must set both the PI Point Engineering Unit and the element attribute UOM manually and separately, which is r...

Currently, if you delete a PI Identity that is still being used, the deletion will succeed and the PI Identity gets renamed to a number everywhere that it is used. This doesn't do much good, since the number does not reveal what the PI Identity us...

It would be useful to be able to determine when (or even if) a PI Point was last accessed by a client application to retrieve its data.  This would enable redundant points to be identified and removed. Alternatively/additionally some form of...

Currently users have to use the command line tools to clear buffer point errors. It would be useful and enhance O&M if these errors could be cleared directly from the UI rather than just viewed.Bonus points for allowing users to clear all, mul...

With ARM64 devices based on the Snapdragon processor becoming more prevalent I would like to be able to install and use PI System Management Tools (PI-SMT) on such a device. Currently installation of PI-SMT fails on these devices, even though a lo...

Users want to be able to view the contents of a log file from the PI System Health tool to assist when troubleshooting an interface or other data flow problem.

Show the list of connectors(SMT->Interface List) along with the list of interfaces associated with the Data Archive.

In addition to a performance counter for total messages sent into the PI log, it would be very useful to have performance counter to determine which of these messages are Critical, Error, or Warning messages. This way, users can monitor specifical...

When backfilling historical data, piarchss logs messages like this one: Inserting overflow record 4035947. Point: 41455, archive start: 4-Jan-17 20:34:10, first event time: 25-Jan-17 09:49:00, record event count: 100, overflow count: 98 When a la...
