Note
This feature is available in Vault Workgroup, Vault Collaboration, and Vault Professional.
Jobs can be submitted to the Job Server for processing during the check in process, during thechange of lifecycle state,
when loading files with Autoloader, or while performing an Update View in the client application.
Submit Jobs during Check-In
In the Check-in dialog, select the Settings button and select Send to Job Server in the Visualization Attachment Option section.
Submit a Job with the Client
To use the Job Server in the client application:
- Select a file and select the arrow next to the Update button.
- In the menu that appears, select Queue Update.
- Click the Update button.
NoteThis setting will remain constant and every time you select the Update button, the Job Server will be used to create the Visualization
file.
Submit Multiple Files at Once with the Client
To use the Job Server with multiple files at once, select all files in the grid, then select Actions > Update View > Queue
Update.
Submit Jobs Automatically with a Lifecycle
To synchronize properties in a lifecycle state transition, check the box next to Synchronize properties and update view using
Job Server in the Transition dialog.
Submit Jobs with Autoloader
To use the Job Server in the Autoloader, select Create Visualization Attachment then select Using the Job Server radio button.
Update the DWF View in the Web Client
The web client can also be used to update a visualization file. Use the Update visualization file feature to re-publish visualization
files that are currently out-of-date. The visualization file is published by the job server, so no additional utilities are
required by the web client.
NoteThe Update visualization file command is only available if the job server is enabled.
- Click Update visualization file.
- Log into the vault. The visualization file update request is sent to the job server. The job server confirms the request and
adds the job to the queue.
Create Visualization DWF/DFX Jobs for Inventor Files
The Create DWF Job for Inventor files (and Synergy DWGs) option always uses the admin project file setting.
If the adminstrator has not set a project file, the failure message "The default Inventor proejct file is not set or could
not be found" is logged for the job. This error also displays for the "Update Locally" workflow if there is no administrator
or user project file.
