Hello
I'm New to EPDM and trying to learn a few things.
We are running the 2011 enterprise version of PDM with Solidworks 2009 and will soon be upgraded to the latest and greatest versions of each. I've been asked to determine the size of the current vault.
Can someone please direct me to the best way to accomplish this task?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Hi Matthew,
You are probably looking for the file size of the archives folder. You can only check that by logging into the archive server and browsing to the archive folder (By default it's C:\Program Files\SolidWorks Enterprise PDM\Data\) and right clicking and pulling the properties. That should give you the size in MB of the vault, the number of folders is actually the number of files in the vault and the number of files is an estimate of the number of versions in the vault. The name of the archive server you are looking for shows up at the top of the administration tool and you can find the archive folders in the Archive Configuration tool that's installed on the server (you'll need to remote in before you can open it),
