Database Archive Utility
The archive utility provides a method of removing older records from the main
database and storing them in an archive database. Archiving older records into a
separate database reduces the storage requirements of the main database, which
reduces the time required to search for specific records or generate reports. The
archived database provides the same set of services as the main database.
