| The Vault Server |  |
| The vault server is an essential component of file management in the Document Management module. The vault server is responsible for transferring all files to and from the PC's hard drive, mounted drives, and other protected areas. The files are moved and copied between various areas. A vault client component, which is an integral to the ERP server, makes a request to the vault server to copy, move, or delete a file. To ensure file security for network installations, the vault server component must be installed on at least one network computer. The vault server component cannot be installed on VAX/Mainframe/Macintosh file servers. Users cannot directly access the files controlled by the vault servers. Instead, use the Document Management module to access the files. The ERP administrator must use the Hosts (dmdoc5500m000) session to register the hosts on which the vault server component runs.
