Reactivate Database

This option permits the user of ADBM to immediately reactivate an updated AMS database after the database is distributed to an Operations Sentinel server.  This feature helps to avoid the situation whereby an active database is updated/corrected but not employed by deactivating then reactivating the same database. When this checkbox is checked a flag is set so that when ADBM constructs the Distribute command it includes the option to reactivate the database.
