Sovelia Vault is Version dependent
Make sure that you always install the exact same version of the client as the admin tool.

If you upgrade the version you always need to make sure you install the exact same version as the existing configuration.

If you install a new user; make sure you install the exact same version as the existing configuration.

How to find the correct version

Upgrading and existing installation.

  • Download the software
  • Make a copy of the soveliaVault.xml located in Vault at : $/Configuration/SoveliaVault
  • Install the Admin tool and run it once and select apply to upgrade the configuration. The clients now need to be upgraded before they can use sovelia Vault.
  • Install the clients
NB

Dont forget to run the Admin tool to upgrade the configuration, and restart all your vault add-ins after an upgrade.

What software to download and install?

  • All Vault Users that will execute jobs in Sovelia Vault need a client with a license installed.
  • The JobProcessor Machine need a client installed, but dont require a license. You can cancel the license login when starting the Vault Client.
  • The Admin tool only need to be installed for the user that will configure the Sovelia Vault.
  • The JobQtool can be installed on the jobprocessor machine and dont require a license.
  • No server installation needed.

Always Install and run the administrator tool first on a new setup on pre 2024 Versions
For pre 2024 versions we need to create an empty configuration when we have a new Sovelia Vault setup, before we install the clients. We need to run the Administrator tool once and create a configuration in Vault. It dont need to be configured, but need to exist.

Install Sovelia Vault Admin (Administrators only)

The configuration Settings

After Sovelia Vault is installed and a configuration is created after the first time you login to the admin tool, there will be a configuration folder within Vault. This folder cannot be moved or the contents manually edited. The Sovelia Configurator controls this.

The configuration file : SoveliaVault.xml in $/Configuration/SoveliaVault

We reccomend that you set it up tp run when windows start up in order to handle the jobs'

TIP

Copy the shortcut into "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup" and JobQtool will start automatically after a reboot.

How to Automate the installation

For pre 2025 Its possible to extract an msi file in order to automate the installation. Go to (1.) if you have 2024 or older.

For 2025 and later you don't need to unpack but get the msi directly from the download and can use the installation script. Jump directly to (.5) if you have 2025 up.

1. Start the installation, Run as administrator, but leave the installation window open.

2. Go to the "C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Temp\ and look for the latest created folder. It will look something like this:

3. Copy the msi file

4. Cancel the installer

5. Create a installation script

msiexec /I "\Sovelia Vault 20XX for Vault 20XX Client.msi" /qb
