Large projects designed using AVEVA E3D™ are usually broken down into individual areas (either physical areas or design areas), depending on the physical size, complexity and configuration of the project.
On a large project, the system administrator first agrees with project and design management, the breakdown of the AVEVA E3D™ project into sections which:
In much the same way as in a design office (with its section leader, draftspeople and so on), AVEVA E3D™ has Teams, the members of which are called Users. These Teams can consist of any number of Users and can be organised by discipline or physical work areas.
AVEVA Administration™ includes a database integrity checking utility, used to check for inconsistencies in the contents of the databases and to derive statistical information about the use of the database storage capacity.

AVEVA Administration™ also allows the system administrator to reconfigure a project, which may be necessary to:

Upgrade AVEVA E3D™ projects when the database structure changes

LEXICON is supplied as a module within the AVEVA suite of products and allows the system administrator to carry out the following:
The MONITOR module is commonly used to query the status of a projects users and access rights. MONITOR allows basic querying of database information which normally can only be obtained using AVEVA Administration™ (which can only be accessed by a Free user).
MONITOR can also be used to quickly change a password of the currently logged in user or completely switch to another user (if the user credentials are known).
Depending on the user type (Free or General), MONITOR can be used to change access rights and defer databases. Batch processing and simply messaging can also be achieved.
If there is a problem with a project that inhibits another module from loading, then the software will automatically load the MONITOR allowing simple diagnostics to be conducted using its command line interface (refer to Using MONITOR for further information.).
