7.2.1 Backup database
General
In tiamo the determination databases are also called databases; in contrast to
the configuration database they can be generated by the user and contain the de-
termination data. Among such determination data is the method data used for the
determination, the measuring data generated during the determination and the re-
sults calculated from it.
In the Local server systems (tiamo light, tiamo full) the databases are stored on the
disk drives managed by the computer and are only available for the users logged
in to this computer who have the appropriate rights of access. In the Client-server
system (tiamo multi) the databases are stored on the disk drives managed cen-
trally by the server and are globally available in the whole client/server system, i.e.
all users with the appropriate rights of access can use these databases.
