Managing Multiple Databases Efficiently

system includes one database for each Kaleido-X in the cluster. When you have completed your changes,
create a backup of the current database and store it in a secure location on your PC.
To back up the current Kaleido-X system:
1. On the Configure menu, point to Database , to Create backup , and then click All .
2. Browse to the secure location on your PC where you store all your database backups (e.g.
MirandaDatabaseBackups
), and type a name for the new backup, preferably a name that
includes the Kaleido-X frame name and the date (e.g.
KX_A&B_08_12_02.zip
).
Working Offline
When using XEdit offline, you work inside a workspace located on your client PC. You set the location for
this workspace when you first opened XEdit. It is recommended to consider this workspace as a sandbox
into which you import the database you wish to work on during this session, and from which you export
the database at the end of the session.
TIP: Once you are satisfied with the location of your local workspace, on the Configure menu, point to
Database , and then select the Do not prompt for the database path check box, to avoid being prompted
every time you open XEdit.
See “Importing a Database” on page 87, for instructions on how to import the database from a specific
Kaleido-X system into your workspace. Once the import is completed, you can work locally, in your XEdit
workspace. When you have completed your changes, export the database from the workspace, back to the
Kaleido-X system.
Applying a backup database to the Kaleido-X
To retrieve a backup database, you must use XEdit in offline mode. A backup database must first be
restored to your local workspace before it can be exported back to the appropriate Kaleido-X frame.
