An offline place is a copy of an online place and resides
on the hard disk of your personal computer. The offline place can include
the top-level room in the place only or the top-level room plus some or all
of the inner rooms, if there are any.
The information in your place is stored on a server.
The server can belong to your
company or a third party, for example, an Internet service provider.
When you work with online, you have to be connected to your server. If you plan to travel or be somewhere where you cannot
connect to your server or would
prefer to work offline to save connect charges, you can take your place offline.
When you make changes in your offline place while physically
connected to your Lotus Quickr Place server -- for example, when you add or
edit pages in the place -- automatically
updates your online place with the changes at regular intervals. Similarly,
when you make changes in your online place, updates the offline place with the changes. The process of updating
the online place and offline place is called synchronization.
You can have more than one offline place. That is, if
you are a member of more than one place, you can take them all offline.
Note: You cannot create, edit, or manually
run PlaceBots in an offline place. Scheduled PlaceBots do not run in an offline
place. Only form PlaceBots run as expected in an offline place.
