Yes, you can add a file to a running system (you could actually do that back
in 6). Move the file over to the appropriate directory, and then open it,
using the SAT ('Server Administration Tool'). If it is properly configured
for network sharing, it will show up in the Open Remote list.
Remember to check the server config settings to make sure it's set up to
allow that many files. Don't set that numbe much higher than needed, as it
will hit performance a bit.

Hello!
We're running a copy of FileMaker Pro Server 7 on a dedicated machine,
and we all access it via the network here. My question is that of a
newbie to administering FMP, so forgive my lame question.
Can I add a database to the server while it is running? IN other words,
can I put a db that's already in FMP7 format, set up to share, into the
db server folder while the server is running, or do I need to stop the
server, add teh file, and restart the server? I have been told that
stopping the server has been the way to go in the past, but that
version 7 has new features that don't need server stoppage as much.
Thanks in advance!
Rob
