One catalog for multiple computers
« on: Yesterday at 02:55:50 PM »
Hello,

I've been using PM+ with images stored on a NAS drive and the catalog stored locally on my MacBook.

The problem I'm having now is the library is so big (700,000+ images and videos) that the catalog and the proxy files are consuming too much of my local storage.

I've decided to put the catalog on a separate drive within the NAS and will then connect my MacBook directly to it - so two network shares: catalog and assets.

My question: is there a way that both my MacBook and desktop computer can both access the catalog at the same time?

I'm getting database locked errors when I try to connect with the desktop. I'm guessing there may be a way around this with rsync but was wondering if it was an issue you'd encountered before.
