Encore — Configuration Manual 209
Control Panel Server Application
Filing Mode
Displays the Source of the active database — Local or
Sharer. Cannot be changed here by the user. In Local
mode, the database is loaded from the locally shared
cache on the system controller. This mode is used when
the Sharer is not detected during Panel Server start-up. If
the Sharer comes on line after the Panel Server starts, the
mode will remain Local until the user presses the
Save
button. Doing so writes the local configuration to the
Sharer and switches the filing mode to Sharer. In Sharer
filing mode the database is loaded from the Sharer PC.
Load
Opens a FilerFax window allowing you to select a Panel
Server configuration file to load.
Save
Saves the Panel Server configuration from the configura-
tion PC’s memory to the Sharer.
Save As
Opens a window to name the current Panel Server config-
uration file. Once a name is entered, a FilerFax window
opens that you use to save the data to the configuration
PC.
Import and Export buttons
Import
Imports a CSV (comma separated values) file from the
directory you choose on the drive you specify in the sub
-
sequent screens: the floppy disk (fd0) or the primary hard
disk (hd0) on the controller or the floppy drive (IP
number//fd0) or the primary hard disk (IP number//hd0)
of the workstation running the OUI. Importing a CSV file
is an alternative way of quickly configuring the Panel
Server. See
Configuration Export and Import on page 170 for
details.
Export
Exports the current database settings as a CSV (comma
separated values) file to the target and path you choose
when you click the Path button: either to the PC’s floppy
disk (fd0) or to the PC’s primary hard disk (hd0). These
exported settings can then be used to configure other
Panel Servers, and is also an effective way to back up a
Panel Server configuration. See
Configuration Export and
Import on page 170 for details.
Status
Reports the current Panel Server mirror status. In Sync, No
Sync
, No Mirror or No Redundancy.
Offline
