If PI DataLink connects to a Data Archive collective, PI DataLink sets a connection preference upon the first connection to the collective. The preference depends on the component that initiates the connection:
-
PI DataLink functions set the preference to Any.
-
Search sets the preference to Any.
-
Connection Manager (accessed from the Settings window) sets the preference to Prefer Primary or to the setting in PI System Explorer, if set differently. For information on setting the preference in PI System Explorer, see the PI Server topic Manage connection preferences for PI System Explorer.
