Delete Records You can delete records (database items downloaded
from the DEFINITY system and stored on a PC) to
prevent your hard disk from becoming overloaded with
data.
You will probably want to archive this data before you
delete it from your hard disk.
You can choose the type of records that you want to
delete:
• Interval data only
• Daily data only
• Both interval and daily.
You can delete all of the data selected according to the
• date on which it was stored
• length of time it has been stored.
In the latter case, you can order that records stored
more than a given length of time be deleted daily.
CAUTION: The importance of performing periodic
backup of your database cannot be
overemphasized. To protect the integrity
of your database, you must schedule
frequent backups on a regular basis.
R
epair Database The database records that have been downloaded and
stored on your PC hard disk can become corrupted.
You can correct this by using the Repair Database
command in the Options menu. After you repair the
database, you will probably want to update the
database Index that allows reports to be quickly
created.
You can also compact the database in order to store
more data on your hard disk.
Co
nnect Connects the Server to a DEFINITY system. If the
Server is already connected to a switch, this command
is disabled.
