We have multiple migrations planned to migrate data from different PI server to a central PI server. Looking for best way to migrate data without any impact to operations.
Hi, We run two Archives (Collectives) and corresponding AF, both over 30k tags/attributes. System Explorer is running considerably slower on Production AF than on Utility AF. Switching from General to Attribute tab takes up to 15 seconds in Production vs. max 0.5s on Utility. Even clicking a different attribute than the selected takes 4…(Show moreShow less)
Hi, Sorry for the late reply, other things got in the way. I installed "PI Notifications Install Kit" Version 1.0.777.0 (couldn't find a Scheduler installer), and chose to only install the client. This made Notifications work in 2018R2 Version. Thank you for your help!
Hi All, We are doing a Cloud migration. Current Production PI version is 2018 Cloud server we have upgraded to 2018 sp2a. As cloud server is already upgraded from 2018 to 2018 SP2a,can we move .dat configuration files from Current production PI server ? will there be any error if we are moving the config files ?
Hello Divya, When moving the PI Data Archive to new hardware, the procedure is to install the same PI Data Archive version on the destination host that is running on the source host and to move the file base. Potential upgrades to more recent versions should be done afterwards. Copying / moving the file base between installations of different…
One of our field guys noticed some odd behavior when setting up some analytics and notifications. One of the tags we have divides the value of one (Int32) tag with another and the result is placed in a third Int32 tag. Think A = 3, and B = 2. The result 1.5 is placed into the third tag as 2 instead of truncating the decimal like what he was…(Show moreShow less)
Yes, it is intentional and no it will not change in the future. With Asset Analytics, if you perform your own rounding, you can specify a rounding mode. See Round() function help here. Modes are "AwayFromZero", "ToEven", or null, which defaults to bankers rounding.
Hello Graham, No, our recommendation is to backup the AF Server (PIFD) database. Please refer to PI AF backup considerations. You could however use the Export / Import functionality to create manual backups of selected Asset databases.
Hello and welcome Avinash Ujjwal! Please allow me to answer your question with a quote from PI Data Link 2019 manual. PI DataLink is a Microsoft Excel add-in that enables you to retrieve information from your PI System directly into a worksheet. Combined with the computational, graphic and formatting capabilities of Microsoft Excel, PI…
I assume the maximum latency performance counter (for PI Analysis Service) is in milliseconds, because it makes sense with the number that I'm seeing during my testing - but can someone confirm this is accurate?
Hello Paresh, There are many dependencies like which products the planned infrastructure is supposed to include and e.g. if there is history to be transferred from an existing 3rd party or an embedded PI historian. Under normal circumstances we plan 4 days for the PI Server installation plus setting up 2 standard interfaces. An additional…
Hi there, I recently read a white paper about pulling PI data into MATLAB. The paper mentioned that I can download the .m files as a pack called 'PItoMATLAB.zip' however, I cannot find this. Anyone have any ideas? best regards Dave
