System Events

Topic Last Modified: 2006-06-11

System events give timed notifications or notify an event sink that databases have started up or shut down.

There are three system events that fire in the Exchange store: OnTimer, OnMDBStartUp, and OnMDBShutdown.

Name	When the event fires
OnTimer	After a certain period of time.
OnMDBStartUp	When a store is started.
OnMDBShutdown	When a store is shut down.

Note

Data in a store is housed in files with the .mdb extension. Although these events contain "MDB" in their names, they refer to a store.
