Off-line Locations
Off-line Locations
This section describes how to create and install an off-line location, and the tasks that are required only at off-line locations. The tasks are:
•
Transfer from the Hub to the off-line Satellite.
•
Transfer from the off-line Satellite to the Hub.
•
Removal of old database and Picture files.
The only communication for off-line locations is between the location itself and the Hub. Transfer is by means of a tape or other media.
Note:
Using off-line locations limits the Global functionality which can be used. Updates will have to be transferred manually, for example, by writing a tape. The Remote operations are not available for off-line locations.
If using extracts, the entire extract hierarchy must be primary or secondary at the offline location. You cannot have some extracts primary at the offline location and some at other locations, since certain operations such as claiming and flushing will fail (refer to Running Global Projects
manual for further information). Note also that if you are using Claims and Flushes, they may fail if you have set a short time-out on commands.
Also, at this release, it is recommended that you should not change a Satellite to be off-line once it is initialised, and you should not change the primary location of a database from an off-line location. Any extract structure must be completely at this location (not across locations).
