Hi,

In our Enterprise Group we have one vault per company. We have 1 company that its database has 4 GB, another with 2 GB. It is not many gigabytes for a database?
The biggest problem is that now I cannot administrate EPDM in these two companies because, for example, when I change permissions, or add an user, or change a data card... block EPDM in entire company (block vault of the company where i'm doing changes).

I would like to know if someone has already confronted with this problem. I need to find a solution for this problem because I only can do changes in EPDM at night when no one is working in EPDM. SolidWorks TEAM is for 3 months studing the problem but I with no answers until now. Someone have any idea?

Hi Pedro -

I'm not sure why you are unaware of progress, but, your issues were addressed by support and a service request was opened and validated. The service request resulted in an open issue for development and is listed as fixed in 2009 SP4 which was released this week.

I suggest you follow up with your VAR.

Best Regards,

Joy

Pedro, I guess I am confused why changing or adding the items you mention is blocking everyone out of the system. I change things all the time while users are in the stystem. Can you explain a little further?

Hi,

For example, actually I cannot change permissions of users or change a workflow when users are in the system, because these operations block PDM;

I usually get an hour glass when making changes to settings or user accounts in the Administration tool. No one can access the vault while there is still an hour glass. This will last from a few seconds to a few minutes. For this reason I try to make changes over lunch or after hours.

Todd, do you know if this is a new issue in 2009? I have not run into that with 2008 and earlier.

Hi Joy,

My SPR that is associated to this problem continues with status "OPEN".

I need a solution to this problem because I cannot wait for lunch or for the end of the work day to change a permission of one user. If I need change a write permission of one user, I must do the change in runtime; if the user has to wait to change a permission like this one, our department pass a bad image for all users (that we are slow to do a simple operation like change a write permission).

I'm waiting for an answer of Solidworks/Sqedio (our support) since April.

Best regards,
