The Repositories tab allows the user to add, delete and view/edit properties of the repositories on the Vault server. It contains a list of all repositories in the Vault server.
A repository is any logical grouping of files. You can create any number of repositories per server, and all the users and groups defined for the user will apply to all repositories. However, files cannot be shared or branched across repositories.
The list is sorted alphabetically in ascending order.
Add
Add allows you to add new repositories to the database. When clicked, the Add New Repository dialog box is made available.
Delete
You can delete a selected repository by clicking Delete. Two successive warning messages will appear before actually deleting the repository.
Always make absolutely sure you will not want access to the files in the repository before deleting it. Deleting a repository destroys all files and all history related to that repository and is not recoverable.
Properties
Click Properties to view the Repository Properties dialog box for the selected repository. You can enable or disable folder security for the entire repository from this dialog box.
The Name of the repository and the Enable Folder Security option can be changed. The property page also includes the following information:
· the number of folders
· the number of files
· the tree size
· the database size
