How Databases are Allocated to Location

If creating a location which does not have a direct link to the Hub, and, when prompted, confirm that all the files copied are required:
-
All databases that exist at the Hub will be copied to the new location.
-
Any databases that do not already exist at the parent of the new location will be copied to the parent.
See the figures below for an example.

Figure 4.3 This diagram shows the databases existing at Locations A and B, just before Location C is created.

Fig 4.4 This diagram shows the databases at all three locations just after Location C has been created.

Fig 4.5 Now the Hub Administrator has de-allocated the ISODRAFT database from Location C because it is not required there.
Notes:
That DRAW/DRAW must remain allocated to Location B. The DRAW database has been made primary at Location C, and the ISODRAFT database has been made primary at Location C.
Display information about the locations already created by selecting Query > List > Locations, which displays the List Locations window.
