Where:

$settings = Get-PIArchiveFileInfo

Where:

$con = Connect-PIDataArchive -PIDataArchiveMachineName "PISRV1"

Set the PI Archive Set settings to the values set

Examples

Set-PIArchiveFileInfo -Name "HistoricalSet" -ArchiveSizeMB 1024 -ShiftFrequency -Connection (Connect-PIDataArchive -PIDataArchiveMachineName PISRV1)

Set the PI Archive Set settings for the primary archive file (ID=0) on the "PISRV1" PI Data Archive server. Because -ArchiveSet parameter is not explicitly set, a value of 0 (Historical) will be used by default.
