We've several PI servers and AF servers where same products are running, so we need the ability to search Event Frames across our AF databases to compare production performance. This search ability should be available in all clients; PI Vision, Da...

As an user, I want to be able to retrieve results of event frame searches and summaries and store them as AF attributes so that I can view event frame data in an AF attribute.

Currently, PI SMT will only allow archives to be reprocessed according to it's original type. User would like to be able to choose whether to reprocess the archives from fixed to dynamic or vice versa.
