AVImark is not SQL. AVImark runs at workstation as a UNC path shortcut and no application is installed on the workstations. Entire program resides on the Server and is much like it's DOS predesessor from the 1980's. Everything it needs to run is installed in it's AVIark folder on the Server. Very few of the 8,000 plus hospitals run it in an RDP mode. Usually those that do have multiple locations with satellite hospitals connected to the main server via Internet back to the central or main hospital. Problem is NVA does not know what they are doing for security and has paid no attention to this problem, and has no well defined distaster recovery plan. They do not allow for outside expert AVImark or IT consultants to help their hospitals.
