The database is initialized during a number of events, including '''console-save''', so a call to '''signal-event console-save''' will evaluate all of the database fragments.

It is an SME Server requirement that all database entries and configuration files must be correctly configured after a "reconfiguration reboot". This is available from the console and server manager and performs the '''post-upgrade''' and '''reboot''' events. Packages should also provide links in other events (e.g. "email-update" for email related changes) to provide reconfiguration without the reboot.}}
