Just curious- 1) How would one know if a save failed - i.e., if the server crashes in the middle of writing out the database? 2) Assuming one is aware that #1 has happened, what it the procedure for recovering? Does WebDNA automatically shift to the backup db, or does one have to manually change over to the backup db? -- Will Starck NovaDerm Skincare Science http://www.novaderm.com wjs@novaderm.com ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
