Data Archive Reference

Collective table (PICOLLECTIVE)

  • Last UpdatedFeb 27, 2023
  • 1 minute read

The PICOLLECTIVE table contains information about the Data Archive collective that the server belongs to, including the collective's name, description, and status. Use this table along with the PISERVER table to determine configuration and status information for each server in a Data Archive collective.

Normally, the table contains one row for the Data Archive collective that the server belongs to. The Name attribute links entries in the PISERVER table to entries in the PICOLLECTIVE table. Data Archive presents the CollectiveID as its server identifier to client applications through PI SDK. This allows client applications to connect to any server in a collective without changing displays.

The primary key is NAME.
