- Method Detail
  - addDataStore
```
void addDataStore(RASIDataStore store)
```
    Deprecated.
    
    Adds a RASIDataStore to this manager. After adding a data store, use restoreConfig to restore the configuration from the data store.
    Only one data store is supported in this implementation. A new data store replaces the current store.
    
    Parameters:
    store - An object which implements the RASIDataStore interface.
  - removeDataStore
```
void removeDataStore(RASIDataStore store)
```
    Deprecated.
    
    Removes a RASIDataStore from this manager.
    Only one data store is supported in this implementation. If the requested store is in use, it is removed. Otherwise, nothing is changed.
    
    Parameters:
    store - An object which implements the RASIDataStore interface.
  - getDataStores
```
java.util.Enumeration getDataStores()
```
    Deprecated.
    
    Gets the data store objects in use by this manager.
    Only one data store is supported in this implementation. It is returned in a Vector (to support future enhancements).
    
    Returns:
    An Enumeration of data stores.

```
void restoreConfig()
                   throws RASIOException

  - saveConfig
```
void saveConfig()
                throws RASIOException
