Strategy #2: Allow Configurations to be Stored Locally on the Thin
Client

The second approach for achieving persistence is to allocate a specific
area of the local DOM (disk) for reading and writing system settings and
connections. DeTOS allows for even greater flexibility by offering two
variations of this strategy:

Enable Local Storage-While running in this mode, DeTOS will
write to the local DOM each and every time configurations are
added, deleted or modified under the Control Panel.

Enable Snapshot Storage-When this mode is selected, DeTOS
allows writes to the local DOM, but in a more finely controlled
manner. An administrator can configure the settings and then store
the current configurations to the DOM by clicking Take Snapshot.
The only settings and connections that will persist across reboots
are the ones captured during the snapshot. The terminal
essentially falls back into a non-persistent operating mode after the
snapshot and discards any new configurations from here on out

until the administrator clicks Take Snapshot again, and a new
snapshot is used as the primary configuration. In some ways, this
mode can be thought of as a hybrid of the standard Enable Local
Storage and No Local Storage modes.

Case Examples

The Local Storage section of the Control Panel allows you to use three
methods for local storage:

No Local Storage

Enable Local Storage

Enable Snapshot Storage

These case examples are provided below to help you decide which of
these three options will work best for you.
