Chapter 4
Assembling and Administering Your Server
The Resource tab lists any resources you have added to the server adminis-
trator. A resource can be a spatial data file (SDF), a raster image file, or a direc-
tory containing multiple SDF or raster image files. A resource can also be an
OLE DB data source and all of its tables, one specific table in the data source,
or it can be a Zoom Goto definition. Note that you add resources on this tab
only if you wish to restrict access to those resources.
Warning
When you run Autodesk MapGuide Server Admin, you are always
logged in under a user account. If Autodesk MapGuide Server is running under
the System account, it will not be able to access the User DSNs you can access in
Autodesk MapGuide Server Admin. In this case, you need to ensure that any
DSNs you configure through the Admin are System DSNs. Otherwise, database
resources will not be set up correctly. Likewise, if Autodesk MapGuide Server is
running under a user account, be sure to log on to that same user account before
running Autodesk MapGuide Server Admin so that the Server and Server Admin
can access the same User DSNs.
To change the access properties of a resource, you must first add the resource
to the Resources tab of the Properties dialog box. For step-by-step instruc-
tions on adding resources, choose Help
Contents, click the Index tab, and
look up
resources, adding.
Taking Data Sources Offline
When you need to update or replace a data source, you must ensure that no
users are accessing the data source. To do this, you need to take the data
source offline. You can take only OLE DB and SDP data sources offline.
To take a data source offline
1
On the Data Sources tab, select the data source you want to disconnect.
Note that you cannot take a single table offline. The resource must be a
data source.
