Network Structure / How To Visualize The Organizational Structure In The Security Environment; How To Use An Sql Server As Event Data Base - AVIRA SECURITY MANAGEMENT CENTER - OPTIMIZATION FOR LARGE NETWORKS Manual

7. Network Structure / How to visualize the organizational
structure in the security environment
We recommend you to visualize the network structure/organizational structure
also in the security environment of the SMC. Thus you have a better overview
and the frontend needs less time for the update of the status display of each
computer.

8. How to use an SQL server as Event Data Base

The SMC uses a Microsoft Access data base in order to save all events. The limit
of the Microsoft Access data base can be reached quite soon in large
environments. (e.g. a slow reaction in case of the maximum size of files of 2
GB).
But it is possible to use the SMC with a Microsoft SQL server. The necessary
steps are described in detail in the Avira Knowledgebase where you find an SQL
script for the creation of the data base.
