Please consider creating a web application like PI Vision Admin, PI Web API Search, PI Manual Logger for Web, and the various integrators, but for PI System Managment Tools (SMT).  I would prefer this to the client-server design now.  It...

As a PI System Explorer user I want to be able to see when was the creation date and last changed date of an AF object without enabling the Audit Trail, similar to the PI SMT feature which is easily accessible and works by default.

Currently to view the Audit Trails of any object on an AF Server, Server level Administrator privileges are needed. There should be the ability for a user that does not have server level administrator to view the Audit Trails of a specific object...

The current 'Analysis Service Statistics' explain quantitatively "what is happening", but do not quantify the available capacity of the analytics engine. Managing a large and busy AF Server involves far too much guesswork as to how much additional...
