Problem
VAB does not retain default configured metadata for central panel after upgrade from Zoom 5.3 to Zoom 5.5
Solution:
From Zoom 5.5 and above, default metadata configurations for central panel have been designed to be saved separately for Grid view and List/Portfolio view.
To retain default configured metadata for central panel after upgrade from Zoom 5.3 to Zoom 5.5, follow these steps:
1. After successfull Zoom client upgrade, edit the zoom.properties
file present in .zm/ directory.
2. Search for the tag “VAB_DEFAULT_METADATA_LIST” and change it to “VAB_DEFAULT_GRID_VIEW_METADATA_LIST“.
zoom.properties
file.3. Save the changes.
4. Restart clientproxy service from Z menu.
Alternately,
1. On the Zoom DAM Server, go to [ZoomDir]/conf/client-settings/
directory.
2. Create or modify zoom.properties
file and add “VAB_DEFAULT_GRID_VIEW_METADATA_LIST” for grid view and “VAB_DEFAULT_LIST_VIEW_METADATA_LIST” tag for List and Portfolio view, so that all clients get updated with the new property name during auto-sync to minimize the efforts.
3. Pull above settings on client machine.
