Integrated/Isolated

If an ARDI server has more than one database attached, the server may be set to be integrated or isolated.

An integrated ARDI server….

• Has a list of every database (ie. location or site) in the sidebar.
• Shares a list of users between every database.
• Allows you to move between databases without needing to sign-in to each one.

An isolated ARDI server…

• Does not have a database list - users will need to know each unique URL.
• Has individual user lists for each and every database.
• Requires re-authentication when moving between databases, even when the login credentials are identical.

The default mode is 'Integrated'. You can switch between the two from the general options tab of the administration page.
