Hi everybody, I have a little question...  
The Store&Forward funciton of a connection is only used for system.tag.storeTagHistory() function but not for anothers functions for example system.db.runPrepUpdate() function ?  
I was hopping that by run "system.db.runPrepUpdate()" function on a connection with fault status, the data would remain in the "store&forward" buffer but not...It is normal?  
Thk

There is a separate function to run a "Prep" update through the S&F system.
