Question Purpose of assigning db to site / How to filter Databases

[hschramm]

Hi

what is the purpose of assigning a database to a site?
I thought it helps to filter out a large number of databases. But it does not. Situation: A customer creates 20+ Databases on 10 Domains. If he is in domain view and clicks on databases, all databases are shown. The "active list" hasn't even a search form to filter databases like the classic view.
What is the idea behind it? I don't get it.

Kind regards,
H

I think it is to tell backup which databases to save along with the domain files.
