Selected Items

Select the Selected Items button to view a list of the data objects you have chosen to collect. To view the tags associated with the objects, open the list by selecting the arrow next to the appropriate object. The list displays the tag, a description of the tag, and the tag type.

Tag Names

Select the Tag Names button to view a comprehensive list of tags associated with the items selected.

Before saving the collection data, select an option for handling future changes to the data source structure.

For both options, when the data source structure changes, the existing data-selection query runs, and any new elements and assets that are found within the query are automatically added.

• Notify me so I can specify what content to include and exclude: If this option is selected, when new assets are discovered, the notification count in the upper-right area of the screen updates. From any page in PI Data Collection Manager, select the notification count to view notifications, and then select the notification to go to the data-selection screen, where you can update your data-selection queries as needed.

• Use these selections as rules to automatically update destinations: As with the previous option, when the data source structure changes, the existing data-selection query runs, and any new elements and assets that are found within the query are automatically added. However, no notifications are posted, so you must manually check the structure for changes.

  Note: The only way to ensure that all new assets are always automatically added is to select the top root element in the hierarchy.
