Using NexusDB Server connects to a remote or local copy of NexusDB Server, rather than using the data files directly. This is a more robust mode and allows multiple users to simultaneously access the same data. Using NexusDB Server requires that you first configure NexusDB Server itself and establish the data folder and alias. VSys One will automatically create the empty tables within your database the first time it starts up.
