Description

 

The offline mode allows you to connect to a read-only copy of the data source when the live database is unavailable. It can be used when the VPN connection is down, or when a user is working from a disconnected network.

 

This feature is only available with the SQL Server data source, and it must be enabled in the settings. Remote Desktop Manager will automatically switch to offline mode when the application is unable to reach the data source.

 

You can also manually activate the offline mode by using the menu File > Go Offline. You can then reconnect to the live database when the connection is back online by using the menu File > Go Online.
