This new form helps visualise where databases are allocated, and which location databases are primary. This form provides additional functionality to change the primary location of a series of databases. It is available from the Data menu in AVEVA Administration:-

The Data Distribution form lists all Databases in the project and maps it against a matrix of locations. This uses the common symbols of:-
|
‘+’ |
indicates the database is primary at this location |
|
‘-‘ |
indicates the database is allocated to this location but is primary elsewhere |
|
‘>’ |
indicates the database is in transit from this location under a pending transaction |
|
‘*’ |
indicates the database is foreign and allocated to this location |

By selecting a number of databases and a location, it is possible to change all those databases to be primary to the selected location.
