Properties of Repository

Please note: Repository is a feature exclusive to i-net Crystal-Clear Plus. Therefore a Plus license is required.

Repositories are central locations where you can store and administrate reports. A repository is a folder on the i-net Crystal-Clear server or a database.

When adding new repositories, they are checked for validity (for example whether the path is correct or a connection to the database is possible), and the result of the check is shown as the status. Current repositories can be deleted either one by one or all at once. Note that this only removes the entry from the configuration, the underlying structure and storage of the repository stays the same and could be added later again as a new repository.

Current repositories can be checked at any time using the "Check" button. If the status of a repository has changed, it is updated. A repository can have 3 statuses green for "available", grey for "unknown" and red for "not available".

The buttons:

• Add hard disk repository location: add a new hard disk location to the list of repositories.
• Add database repository location: add a new database location to the list of repositories.
• Remove repository location: removes one or more repository locations from the configuration.
• Check repositories: the current repository locations are tested for validity.

The columns of the repository list:

• Active: box for choosing the currently active repository which is to be used. Only one repository can be activated at the same time.
• Location: the repositories locations
• Status: status of the repositories availability: green for "available", grey for "unknown" and red for "not available".
