Before installing the Remote Content Center Libraries for Autodesk Inventor 2018, ensure you have the following installed:

For Inventor 2018 Remote Content

• Autodesk Data Management Server 2018 (Vault Server)



For Inventor 2018 Desktop Content

• Autodesk Inventor or Inventor Professional 2018

1. From the Autodesk web site, select and download the Remote Content Center Libraries for Inventor 2018 that you wish to have ongoing access to.
2. Save the downloaded executable(s) locally.
3. Ensure Vault Server 2018 is installed, but not running.
4. Extract each library by double clicking the .exe file. All libraries will be extracted into a default location, or you can specify a custom destination folder. To install all your libraries in a single operation, use the same extraction location.
5. Browse to the extraction location to ensure all libraries were extracted successfully.
6. If you are using the default username and password for the Vault and SQL servers, then within the extraction location, double click the setup.bat file. All libraries present will be installed into the Vault Server 2018 database. If you do not want to install a specific library, simply delete its zip file before running the setup.bat file.

NOTE: If you are using a non-default username and password for the Vault or SQL servers, you will need to modify the setup.bat file before double clicking to start the library installations. Using a text editor, modify the lines 6 to 11, starting with SET, appropriately. Do NOT make any changes below line 12 and ignore the remark lines starting with REM.

7. Open the Autodesk Data Management Server Console and verify that all libraries were installed successfully...
