Even though you can create multiple databases for a SCADA server, Database Manager can load and display only one of them at a time. You can load any database residing on the current SCADA server by selecting Reload from the Database menu. Reloading a database lets you:
- Switch from one database to another.
- Restore the database to its saved configuration.
- Load a database after completing and saving modifications.
- Place on scan the chains configured to begin processing when SAC starts.
Using the SCU, you can select the default database to load on start-up. When you load another database, it remains in memory until you restart iFIX. Refer to the Setting up the Environment manual for more information about specifying the database to load on start-up.
