Buffering calculation for PI Adapter

Hi all,

I would like to understand more about buffering, and how to accurately calculate the MaxBufferSizeMB of my data for 1 day.

I have successfully connected to my datasource which is an OPC UA server, added the discovery, queried my data, exported my data to a CSV file, and import it back in through dataselection with PowerShell EdgeCmd. At this stage, assuming that my MaxBufferSizeMB is set to the max at 2147483647, how then do I check when my buffer starts running, and collecting data?

Hi,

The adapter manuals say that buffering only happens if the data stays resident in memory for more than 5 seconds. I think the only way to actually test if the buffer is working or not is to break the network for a period of time

Hi Sahilip,
Appreciate the reply. The problem is that my buffer data is increasing even though my system is live, and this should not be the case.
