Manage the FMS Vault

 

Vaults of individual distributed sites can be selected from the FMS Vaults list. All individual vaults available at a specific distributed site are added and managed through this list.

The term vault is used for protected storage areas that are reserved for exclusive use by Agile e6 on the storage media of a computer or within a network compound. Access to this areas must go through the Agile e6 file management system and can only be performed by users with the required system privileges on the operating system level. Generally speaking, storage areas can be defined on any storage media within a network.
The definition of vaults in a network compound is performed on the operating systems level using system privileges. Storage area management functions of Agile e6 can be found in the FMS-Vaults mask.
It is recommended that you refrain from creating vaults which do not physically exist in order to ensure the integrity of your system.

 

To open the list, go to the DDM Site Vault form and switch to Edit Mode. Change to the Target Vault field and click the button .

When a new vault is created, the Type, Network reference, Name, and Date fields are filled in automatically.

Select one of the available options in both the Kind and the Type field. The number of available options may vary depending on the application at hand.
