[erlang-questions] Mnesia best practices

Hi Mazen,

Can you be more specific please? I have had a look at the OTP Design principles i.e. release handling as suggested.

Although it mentions target systems and building a release (.rel which looks good) it doesn't specify how I might specify the working Mnesia instance which I also want starting?

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Dan

Use targets systems that conform to OTP release handling and and this sort of things come to you for free... you don't need to start Mnesia from your application.
