Always interesting to see the comments on file management. Ideally you want a system that allows checkin / checkout and Vault is the answer. As I know from many discussions offline with FRC teams it is not always possible to setup given the server restrictions in school labs.

Let me know if I can help with any file management issues. Looks like there are few good work flows and suggestions already posted.
Hi Phil. We used Vault in 2014 with great success, but we encountered great difficulty in setting up the project file and working folder. We recently went through the process again in preparation of the 2015 season and found it no easier to set up again, since we forgot a lot about what we did the first time. Also, we've had some difficulty using autoloader and bringing in files from other sources.

We'd be most appreciative of any tutorials you have.

Also, will Vault continue to work fine with files containing HSM data?

Finally, can we upgrade Inventor to 2015 and still keep our Vault server at 2014? Or will we need to upgrade that too?

Thanks.
