Web client, and Shadow directory

Post by Christopher Wells » Fri Feb 04, 2005 9:02 am

We have an evaluation copy of Vault.

Two questions:

1) Is there documentation re. the web client (and if so, where is the documentation)? Using the web client it seems possible to list the versions of each file and get the contents of any version ... but not possible to use it to get the latest copy of everything from a folder / subfolders.

2) Does Vault support something analogous to the SourceSafe "Shadow" directory feature, which can be enabled to maintains a snapshot of the latest copy of the database?

There's really nothing by way of VaultWeb documentation yet, but it's on the todo list. As you've discovered, it can only handle one file at a time.

Vault does have a shadow folder option that works pretty much the same as SourceSafe. Documentation for it can be found here:

Also, you may want to examine the Knowledge Base http://support.sourcegear.com/viewforum.php?f=13 regarding specific issues related to configuration of Vault's Shadow Folders.
