MS SQL Backend

Postby tranceport185 » Tue Jan 29, 2008 1:19 pm

Hello I have searched the forum and cannot seem to find any information regarding ODBC capabilities of Scalix most specifically using MS SQL as the Database. Any information regarding this would be greatly appreciated.

Hi

It is not possible to use MS SQL as the back end to Scalix.

Is the software able to utilize any other database backends?

Hi

No

The Scalix database is a UNIX flat file system. This arrangement gives a lot of flexibility in backup and disk resilliance unlioke single file system which may crash if some sectors on the disk become corrupt.

Try it Scalix is an enterprise coroboration system built from the ground up to be scalable.

The database is UNLIMITED in size. IE if you can through more disk space at it then Scalix can use it. Multiterabyte message stores are common in Scalix.
