Attach Document Vault

A document vault may have been detached (refer to Document Vault Administration) from M-Files Server, in which case all data in the document vault is kept in a file folder on a hard drive but the document vault is not registered on the server. If you want to start using the document vault again, you can do so by attaching the vault back to M-Files Server with the Attach Document Vault function. You can find it by opening the Document Vaults section in M-Files Admin's tree-view.

If, for example, lack of space makes it necessary to move a document vault from the C: drive to the E: drive, this can be done with the Detach and Attach functions. For more information about the original identity of the document vault, refer to Restore Document Vault.

For the difference between original identity and new identity, see Restore Document Vault.
