At the end of the Autodesk Vault Server 2015 installation, you are prompted to start the Autodesk data management server console. It launches the server console when installation of the Vault server is completed.
The first time the Autodesk data management server console starts, it looks for existing databases for migration. The server database, earlier versions of Inventor libraries and user Content Center libraries, are located and submitted for migration.
For both Vaults and Libraries, select Yes to migrate them into the new Autodesk Vault Server database schema. A Vault database contains user profiles and other information important for Content Center. Migrate the Vault database even if you do not use Vault.
Migrated Content Center libraries remain accessible by their respective Inventor versions. You can copy any migrated user libraries to the AI2015 partition for use with AI2015. In the Copy Libraries dialog box, select libraries to copy to a higher partition to make them accessible to higher Inventor versions. By default, all user libraries are copied to the AI2015 partition.
NOTE To access non-migrated vaults and libraries, first migrate them to the new version of the server. You can migrate non migrated databases manually at a later time.
If a library check-box is selected, the library remains available for the Inventor version and/or a new copy is created for the higher Inventor version.
If a library check-box is not selected, the library is removed from the Inventor version. A copy is not created for the higher Inventor version.
You can review your selections in the Copy Libraries dialog box before you execute the specified changes.
Click Yes to begin execution. Click No to return to the previous dialog box.
After the migration and Copy Libraries is complete, Content Center libraries are shown in the server console. AI2015 standard content libraries and user libraries retain the library names represented in the Autodesk Vault Manager on previous versions of Autodesk data management server. Each of them are shown in the Autodesk Inventor 2015 partition on the right side of the Autodesk Server Console dialog box.
Copies of migrated user libraries created for AI2015, are available with a prefix AI2015_ added to their name. They are located in the Autodesk Inventor 2015 partition. Additionally, all newly installed Inventor 2015 standard content libraries contain the AI2015_ prefix in their library names.
Start Inventor 2015 and connect to 2015 Vault Server, Launch Update Tool to update legacy user libraries to make them usable in AI2015.
