5.6 OC/SA Datastores
Like the FSS local datastores, the databases on the OC and SA are also Firebird. These databases can be connected to DbVis with a couple quick steps.
The setup is similar and requires navigating to the SA or OC directory on an AWIPS workstation, then connecting to the local datastore.
Remember: You must run the script from the AWIPS machine to launch DbVis and set up the connection to the OC or SA local datastore. In addition you must stop the OC or SA to connect. You must exit DbVis to launch the OC and SA again.
See the instructions below for details on how to connect DbVis to an OC or SA local datastore.
