Create a Vault

Use the server console to create additional vaults. You can organize your information into different locations by creating different vaults. Vaults are completely independent from each other. A client computer can only be logged on to one vault at a time.

1. Launch the Autodesk Data Management Server Console.
2. In the navigation pane, select the Vaults folder.
3. Click Actions  Create.
4. In the Create Vault dialog box, enter the name for the new vault. The name cannot contain special characters or spaces.
   NoteA vault cannot have the same name as an existing library.
5. The file store can be located in a default location, or a new location can be specified. Click OK to create the new vault with the default file store location, or click Select File Store Location to specify a new location, and then click OK.
   NoteThe file store is where the vault database stores the actual files that are in the vault server. The location can be local or remote. If you want to specify a location on another computer, use UNC path naming conventions. For example: \\SERVER\SHARE\Vault.
6. Select the Use a custom configuration file check box and specify the location of another configuration file if you do not want to use the default configuration file.
