We could easily rename files in Vault. In fact, Vault has its own Renaming Wizard wherein we would just add the files that we want to rename. Also, related files that will be affected by this operation will be repaired. However, we should remember this:
Vault would not rename files in the local workspace
Thus, if we’re going to rename a file in Vault, make sure that:
1. The files that will be affected by the file rename are all checked in the Vault.
And in order to avoid dependency problems when opening (an assembly for example) a file:
1. Make sure that your local workspace is empty.
2. Get entire folder for that particular project.

After I installed the Autodesk Data Management Server 5 Service Pack 1, I tried accessing the Vault Manager. It popped up an error message with provisions for putting the username and password. The error message is about the impersonation message.
In order to solve this problem, right click on My Computer then select Properties. Click on the Computer Name tab. Copy the full computer name. Thus, if it is a member of a domain, include the domain.
Login as [full computer name]/AutodeskVault then leave the password at its default. You may refer to the discussion here.

Migrating from Autodesk Inventor 11 to Autodesk Inventor 2008 was quite a challenging one for me. I have to uninstall to uninstall ADMS 5, Vault 5 and Inventor 11 content center because they’re not compatible with Inventor 2008.
Suggested Deployment procedures
First, you should backup Vault.
Uninstall the following:
- Autodesk Inventor 11
- MDT 2007
- ADMS 5
- Vault 5
- IV 11 Content Center
Then, install the following:
- Autodesk Inventor 2008
- MDT 2008
- ADMS 2008
- Content Center
- Vault 2008
And if you still want to use the old content center, just restore the backup.
Make sure that you comply with the graphics and systems requirements. More information can be found here.
