Amlib provides the facility for up to three database environments - for example: a Live database, a Training
database and a Test database environment. When Amlib is first installed a small Training database is provided
to enable Amlib training and familiarisation to take place immediately. The Live Amlib database can be copied
into the Training database on a regular basis (subject to disk space) which can be useful for either testing new
features or training new staff on actual data without affecting the Live database.
