Update Clients
After a new version of the vault has been installed, you can
update the clients (both SolidWorks and SolidWorks Explorer clients).
No service pack is required.
When the vault is updated and you log in to a client (SolidWorks or
SolidWorks Explorer), a message indicates the client is not compatible
with the version in the vault if the client is not in the same major
release of SolidWorks Workgroup PDM. (However, the service pack levels do not
have to match. For example, you can run an SP3 version of the vault software
with a client that has SP2 installed.) Follow the on-screen instructions
to update the clients.
To update the client:
A pdmwUpdater
dialog box appears and prompts you to close the client.
With the pdmwUpdater
dialog box still open, close the client.
In the pdmwUpdater
dialog box, click OK to confirm
the update.
-
After the update is complete, click OK
again.
The Login dialog box appears
for you to log back in to the client.
