Using eCONFIG 97

database, as that causes an error if you try to shut down the eCONFIG

and write the database back into the DECT Messenger directory.

Note 2:

If there are Monitored devices in the active configuration, and

one of these devices initiates a follow-me, the diversion information

is stored in the active database. Therefore, you cannot restore the

eCONFIG database, and any changes you have made are lost (except

for the changes in Users, Groups, and Devices, as explained in the

following paragraph).

If you make changes in Users, Groups or Devices, these changes

are stored in the eCONFIG database (Messenger_WRK.cfg) and in

the operational database (Messenger_CFG.mdb), and are therefore

immediately activated. Saving this information into the operational

database is done by sending an XML string from the eCONFIG to the

eKERNEL. The eKERNEL stores this information into the operational

database.

• Starting up the eCONFIG again

After you start the program again, eCONFIG finds a database in its

directory. eCONFIG asks you whether you want to continue with this

database or retrieve a fresh copy from the operational database. Nortel

recommends that you make a fresh copy of the operational database,

because then you are sure there is no database inconsistency.

Using eCONFIG (Remote) on remote PC (client) in the Network

After the eCONFIG is installed on the DECT Messenger server PC the

database is handled as shown in Figure 20 "eCONFIG database handling

when used on a remote PC (client PC)" (page 97).
