What are good maintenance practices for the Kform Project Manager?
• The kform.mdb (kform database) should be backed up daily. • All computers must have uninterruptible power supplies to prevent damage to computers, operating systems, and applications in event of power failure, brownouts, and power surges. • When utilizing a peer to peer network, the “server” computer – CANNOT be rebooted if ANYONE is accessing ANY shared application. In a Server / Client network configuration the server CANNOT be rebooted if ANYONE is accessing ANY files or applications from the server. • The file server and workstation should have up to date service packs and updates. • The Compact/Repair Database feature should be run from the Kform Project Manager Utilities Menu on a routine basis – at least once a month. This is preventative maintenance to repair small database defects before they cause a corrupt database and also compacts the database to provide a small and faster database. • Remove or upgrade any errant programs or files from workstation and the file server. •
