THE PLM STATE

Help!!! The Files In The Agile PLM Vault Are Empty...

Vault files are empty!If you have recently performed an upgrade to Agile PLM and noticed that your attachment sizes have a 0 file size, don’t panic. Thanks to a useful utility shipped with Agile 9.3.x you can update your database to get the correct sizes to show, here are the instructions on how to do it yourself:

 

 

 

File vault before with no file size

 

  1. Unzip FixVault.zip which can be found in <AGILE_HOME>agileDomaintools
  2. Navigate to the extracted directory <AGILE_HOME>agileDomaintoolsFixVault
  3. I chose to create a batch file (fix.bat) to avoid entry mistakes. The contents are:
    java -jar FixFileSizeUtility.jar -dburl srvagiledb:1521:agile9 -dbuserid agile
            -dbpassword tartan -ifsuser ifsuser -ifspassword agile -log  &gt; fixvault_output.txt
  4. Open a command window to <AGILE_HOME>agileDomaintoolsFixVault
  5. Execute fix.bat
  6. Our test vault had over 65,000 files in it and it took approximately 25-30 minutes to run
  7. Now look at your part’s attachment again to verify the file size was updated
