You can use the Revit Server model creation command-line utility (RevitServerTool.exe) to automate the creation of local models to facilitate server-based worksharing. Revit Server Model Creation Command-Line Utility.To prepare for scheduled backups, you can use the Revit Server command-line utility to lock and unlock a Revit Server Host or specific folders or models therein. Use the Revit Server Administrator to lock models in order to safely back up and restore model data for server-based worksharing. Locking Models for Backup and Restoration.Three types of lock are used to maintain data integrity in server-based worksharing.



Rehost Models When a Revit Server Host Malfunctions.“Allowing lightweight file-sharing, threaded conversations and collaboration that’s a lot more project-based.”Ī Project Bluestreak messenger can also be downloaded to run from your computer’s TSR tray to allow instant-messaging-like communication with other team members. “We wanted more focused activity in the project groups,” said Mark Evans, Autodesk’s senior product manager of the simulation line. With the Revit server compatibility any information from a Revit model can be linked and shared through the activity stream. Recently, Autodesk gave project Bluestreak a major upgrade that includes a new, Facebook-like UI, Revit Server compatibility for users of any Revit 2011 product, and the ability to download files directly from a user’s activity stream. Bluestreak consolidates the information silos used in AEC workflows by combining informal, real-time team communication with automated actions and information from AEC applications and services, starting with Revit.

Launched last year on Autodesk Labs, Autodesk Project Bluestreak is a Building Team-centric, cloud-based collaboration utility that helps distributed AEC teams communicate informally and coordinate their work more efficiently.
