The Web DBM database tool allows you to manage database instances. Among other things, it enables you to create, monitor, back up and restore database instances.
Web DBM runs in the Web browser and it can be used on all operating systems supported by the database system. It allows you to manage database instances on the local computer and on remote computers.
Web DBM is a Web tool. It is part of the MaxDB software, which you can download from the MaxDB Web site (see Download and Installation Profiles).
For more information on the database system, see Concepts of the Database System and the Glossary.
The features and user interface of Web DBM largely resemble those of the Database Manager GUI. For this reason, use the Database Manager GUI documentation when working with Web DBM.
The Database Manager CLI database tool also has features similar to those of Web DBM, however it uses a different user interface.
Web DBM only allows you to connect to one database instance at a time. However, you can still monitor multiple database instances simultaneously. To do this, open as many browser windows as you need with Web DBM, and log on to each database instance in a different window.
Unlike the Database Manager GUI, you may experience timeouts when you work with Web DBM. A timeout breaks the connection to the database instance, in which case you need to log on again.
