Introduction

Nash!Com Database Catalog is a powerful administration tool that can be used by administrators to supervise databases within a whole domain.

In addition it provides a kind of library for users where they can find databases they already have access to or databases they need access to.
Therefore the databases does also provide a "Databases Access Request Workflow" that is fully integrated into the administrative part of the database.

Almost every technical information that can be retrieved from a database can be displayed in views or forms.

The following scenarios describe typical problems that can be solved by this database catalog:

For Administrators

• Locate databases on multiple servers
• Security analysis of database settings like ACL, Consistent Access, Maximum Internet Access, Default Access ( see ACL Views)
• Check database sizes, fulltext index size, maximum size, quotas
• Find databases that are outdated, not in use any more (see Last Data Modified or Database Activity Views)
• Find databases that do not replicate due to invalid settings or missing replication schedules (see Special Replication Views)
• Check database settings like "cutoff delete" or "never replicate" and "do not list in database open dialog"
• Find databases that do not have a design template or check the template inheritance of databases
• Get an overview of all Agents scheduled in the whole domain including private agents (see Agent Views)
• Check for agents that do not run because they are scheduled on the wrong server or signed by a person who left the company
• Get an overview of all view sizes to check for databases with large and complicated views
• Find details about databases with large number of modified documents (per day, week and month)
• Get the number of deleted documents and replication/save conflicts to troubleshoot applications
• Get overview of server's notes.ini settings

• Have an overview of databases they should have access to (Database Library)
• Automated database access workflow that link end-users, people who own the database and administrators who setup the ACL
