Welcome to Secure Perfect!  
Secure Perfect Editions is a multi-edition offering of Integrated Secure Management Software designed 
on Microsoft Windows technology. Secure Perfect Editions provide full security management functions 
including access control, intrusion zone control, alarm monitoring, reporting, photo ID badging, and CCTV 
interfaces as standard features. Secure Perfect Editions also offers integrated system options that 
include digital video surveillance and Web-based reporting.   
 Throughout this Help system, reference to Secure Perfect is represented as "SP" in text content to 
avoid repetition where the product name and/or version may have already been established. 
SP Global Edition: SQL Server 2000 Replication services are used to distribute the data from a Global 
Server to Regional Servers. Secure Perfect installation creates the necessary components for a 
replicated system, configuring publications and subscriptions at each level. The Global Database Server 
is the ‘main’ Secure Perfect database server. The term ‘main’ as used in this context means that the 
Global Database Server acts as a hub for all replication activity. This Global Server hosts a Distributor 
whose role is to store history and miscellaneous information about merge replication. When the 
Distributor is created on a database, it generates its own database to store information. Once publishing 
is enabled on the Global Server, it is able to control and monitor publications and subscriptions as well as 
the starting and stopping of replication agents. Regional Database Servers act as ‘client’ database 
servers. They have the ability to subscribe to publications located on the Global Server. These Regional 
Servers operate independent of the Global Server for a period of time as necessary. Subscriptions are 
‘pushed’ to each Regional Server by the Global Server. This means that the Regional Servers are not 
required to request updated data from the Global Server, because updates are periodically supplied to 
Regional Servers according to a set schedule. Replication intervals are configurable through SQL Server 
Enterprise Manager user interface. Data is continually synchronized by implementing this customized 
replication configuration. Refer to the Secure Perfect Installation Guide for a terminology list and 
complete description of this feature. Also refer to 
 and
