Product Data Management (PDM)

“

- [Lecturer] Starting with SolidWorks 2017 they've now moved to SolidWorks PDM installation inside of the SolidWorks installation manager. So just like we would open up the SolidWorks installation manager to install the latest version of SolidWorks on our machine, we can also install any server products from this same screen. So you can see here when I expand the server products list we can install the managed server, which is a new product, SolidWorks Manage, SolidWorks PDM Server, the SolidWorks License Manager, Electrical and PCB Services, but specifically we can install SolidWorks PDM Server and the SolidWorks License Manager. Now in another series on SolidWorks PDM we go through all the different installations and how you handle it on the client and the servers so we're not gonna go into that now. The important part is that all of this installation is handled through the installation manager now starting with SolidWorks 2017.
