Configure PI Buffer Subsystem to send data to select collective members

Note: Use these instructions only for PI Buffer Subsystem 4.3 or later.

For certain configurations, you may not want to send data to all collective members. For example, if collective members are in different networks, you may want to send data only to servers on the local network.

As a prerequisite, configure PI Buffer Subsystem to send data to all servers in a collective.

1. Click Start > All Programs > PI System > PI Interface Configuration Utility.

2. Select Tools > Buffering.

3. In the Buffering Manager window, click the Settings link.

4. In the Buffering Settings window, select the collective member to which you do not want PI Buffer Subsystem to send data.

5. In the Buffering list, select Disallowed.

6. Click Save.

   PI Buffer Subsystem no longer sends data to the selected server. To send data to this server, you can configure a PI to PI interface.
