Manage buffering with Buffering Manager

Buffering Manager helps you set up buffering with PI Buffer Subsystem. When upgrading from an older version of PI Buffer Subsystem or from API Buffer Server, Buffering Manager helps ensure that buffering is configured properly for existing interfaces. After upgrading, you can also use Buffering Manager to add Data Archive servers or collectives that will receive buffered data.

You can also perform the following tasks with Buffering Manager:

• Modify buffering settings for the computer that Buffering Manager is running on, specific servers, and collectives receiving buffered data.

• View buffering status, estimated buffer capacity, number of events sent and queued, and any point errors for servers and collectives.

• Export files containing detailed information about the status of buffering on a computer.

• View messages with additional information for troubleshooting issues.
