iBase tools

iBase tools are provided to help you to carry out advanced database administration. Most tools are installed separately to the standard iBase installation by selecting the Extended Features option in the InstallShield Wizard (Search Index configuration tool is installed by selecting the Server option).

The tools, if installed, are accessible from the Windows Start menu in i2 iBase > Tools.
