  Autodesk Vault Update 1 is LIVE
  November 17, 2009 12:14 PMby Brian Schanen

  Announcing Update 1 for Autodesk Vault 2010 family of products. This contains several roll ups of previously hotfixes, as well as new addressed issues like:

• Property related operations (such as Checkin, Property ReIndex) may stop responding as a result of application pool becoming automatically disabled in Windows 2008 operating system. This Update 1 addresses this operating system incompatibility
• Custom properties with white space do not get brought into Vault 2010 correctly
• Improved behavior of Copy Design of a substituted part resulting in the new part referencing the original derived assembly
• In a rare case a software license may not be released appropriately
• Reinstate the Locked File Icon for user visibility
• Files locked in a 2009 dataset, and then migrated to 2010, cannot be unlocked. Receive message "You do not have adequate permissions to perform this operation." ACL cannot be removed.

Note the Lock Icon reinstatement. This is my favorite part of this update. Whether you use released Items or document lifecycle states, this will show properly in Inventor.

  New utility: Effective Folder Permissions
  November 4, 2009 11:32 AMby Brian Schanen

  With Vault Workgroup, Collaboration, and Manufacturing, folders have the option of security through Access Control Lists (ACL). Doug Redmond, author of “It’s All Just Ones and Zeros” Blog has posted a great utility to view a matrix of permissions by user. This is nice for a ‘forest-from-the-trees’ view of Vault folder security. Enjoy!
