Welcome to Vertical Sky Software Manager 1 Vertical Sky Software Manager is a comprehensive, projectoriented configuration management system that gives you control over the evolution of your files. It not only documents the changes made to your files, but also tracks who made them, when they were made, and the reasons why. In addition, its project functionality lets you group related files into projects that can follow your development cycle. VSky Software Manager includes extensive configuration options to provide configuration management that conforms with your established policies. Whether you work on one-person projects, or in multipleprogrammer development environments, VSky Software Manager has the features to help you get the job done. Its function set and project-oriented client/server architecture are available in both command line and graphical user interfaces. Briefly, there are two main roles when using VSky Software Manager: the administrator and the user. The administrator installs VSky Software Manager; defines and customizes projects and policies; and creates and manages user accounts, allowing users to access the program. A user is anyone who needs to work with VSky Software Manager projects. The Vertical Sky Software Manager User Guide provides details on the user role and explains how to approach the day-to-day tasks in VSky Software Manager. > > > > > > > > > > > > 1
