A single SAW Server can serve multiple databases. You can double-click the entry in the database list to manage the corresponding database. Every database has its own items:
NOTE: Anytime a database is added, edited or deleted, the SAW Service must be restarted to register the changes.
Show the locations of the database.
Show the Alias of the database.
To add a database, press the Add button and then use the Browse button in the Add Database dialog box to select the srcsafe.ini file corresponding to the SourceSafe database. The file name should be the full path of the srcsafe.ini file corresponding to the chosen database. To hide the physical location of the database, a database alias may be created for each database. If a database alias is created, only the alias name will be visible to SAW Clients. Click the OK button in the Add Database dialog to save the database path and alias.
NOTE: The Database Alias must be provided. The user specified in the Log On tab of service property dialog box must has access to all the VSS databases, or else one or more databases can't be served by SAW server.
To edit a database path or alias, select the database and then press the Edit button. Make any changes to the database path or alias in the Edit Database dialog box then press the OK button.
To cause SAW to no longer serve an existing database, select the database and then press the Delete button.
