Establishing access for the LearningSpace Admin group

Make sure that all members of the LearningSpace Admin Group have access to create new databases and new replicas on your LearningSpace server.

1.Open the Server\Servers view in the Name & Address book.

2.Open the server document for the LearningSpace server.

3.Click the Edit server button.

4.Expand the restrictions section.

5.Edit the “Create new databases” and “Create replica databases” fields to include LearningSpace Admin.

6.Save and close.

Using more than one Central on a server

You can have more than one LearningSpace Installation Directory and Central database on a server. Creating multiple Installation directories allows you to have distinct LearningSpace “course domains” on the server.

Each Installation Directory is associated with a unique central.nsf. The Central in a given Installation Directory manages all the courses contained in that Installation Directory. If, for example, you have a large number of courses that can be divided into two distinct groupings — say Technical courses and Management Training courses — you might want to create a separate Central to manage each set of courses.

To create another Central, follow the procedure in the “Installing files on the server” section in this chapter. When you enter the name of the Installation Directory, use a unique name. For example, if you are creating two Installation directories, you might name them “lspace1” and “lspace2.”
