If the PDM client PC has previously connected to the PDM server while connected on the LAN, the PDM server’s name and IP address should be cached by the DNS on the PDM client PC. Overall performance using SOLIDWORKS PDM features is slow (logging in, browsing, adding files etc).Clients cannot find the servers at all (common problem when using WAN configurations).These system names are resolved to Internet Protocol (IP) addresses by the Domain Name System (DNS) server on the network, and if this name lookup fails or is slow it can cause the following: SOLIDWORKS PDM clients are normally set up to communicate with the PDM server (Archive Server and SQL server) using their system names. You should work with your IT department to obtain the correct VPN software and configuration details to connect to your corporate network from a remote location. Virtual Private Network (VPN)Ī VPN is a computer network that uses the Internet to provide remote offices or individual users with secure access to their organisation’s network. BT Superfast Fibre is 50 Mbps download but only 8 Mbps upload. upload speeds will be slower than download speeds, e.g. Please note, broadband internet speeds are usually ‘asynchronous’ i.e. The WAN connection should have a maximum latency of 150 milliseconds (ms) when using a VPN over the internet this is for PDM’s SQL database communication.A fast internet connection is recommended, with a minimum of 1 Mega-bits per second (Mbps) upload/download speed.To establish a WAN connection between a remote PDM client and the office based PDM server, the following is required:
Usually, all SOLIDWORKS PDM servers and clients are on a company’s ‘Local Area Network’ (LAN), so access and communication between servers and clients is generally straightforward.įor a PDM client to access the PDM server from a remote location, such as home or another office, the remote PDM client must be have the same level of access and communication to the PDM server (and network license server) over a ‘Wide Area Network’ (WAN). Additionally, the PDM clients must be able to communicate with server-based SOLIDWORKS SolidNetWork License (SNL) Manager. All PDM clients must communicate with the PDM server over a network connection. Harpreet Matharoo | Application SpecialistĬAD MicroSolutions Inc.SOLIDWORKS PDM is a Server/Client application. Reset SA credentials in Database Server Configuration Tool 1) Log in to the database server host computer 2) Open database server configuration at Start>All Programs>Solidworks PDM>Database Server Configuration.
If the tool is already open, it is displayed in the system tray.ģ) In the archive server configuration tool, go to tools>Default Settings.Ĥ) In the SQL login box, click change and specify the new SA credentials. Start>All Programs>Solidworks PDM>Archive Server Configuration. Close the program Reset SA credentials in Archive Server Configuration Toolġ) Log in to the archive server host computer.Ģ) Open archive server configuration tool at
Steps to reset SA credentials:ġ) Log in to the SQL server host with windows administrator credentials.Ģ) Open SQL server management studio and connect to the database with ‘Windows Authentication’Ĥ) Specify the new password. In this post, I will show you how to reset credentials for the system administrator account in SQL server and to integrate it with the server components of PDM. System administrator account (‘SA’) in SQL server plays a vital role in managing the file vault database and the vault data.
