Alternatively to the Database configuration panel, a properties loader panel can be used. This panel allows the loading of a Database configuration from a configuration file. You can choose a file that has the previous database configuration on the popup panel. After that, the text on the lower button in the database table will change to Restart @Note2. If you click this button and restart, the application will restart with the new database active and @Note will be ready to work.
