i've searched the forum, cannot find anyone with this same scenario... so here goes...
Structure 2011
Central file has one arch revit file linked in. Yesterday 4 users were working on their local copies. One tried to save and got the message that the central file no longer existed (sorry, i don't remember the exact wording). i opened the explorer, and sure enough - NO files, no backup, no old file- there were no files at all. our central file and the arch's link file were gone.
we recreated a central off the person with the most recent save.
3 hours later - the same thing happened again.
has anyone experienced this?? can anyone offer any avenues down which we may look?
as usual, it's a huge project with tight deadlines - my heart cannot handle disappearing files!
thanks much,
gayle

If the central ...AND its backup folder disappeared, then this IS NOT a revit issue! Look to your staff or your network as the cause of your problems.
I wish you luck.... someone needs to 'fess up.

we suspect one of our newbies inadvertantly did it (twice!! yikes!)
even so, i preferred some thing like that as opposed to a dying server or a file corruption or anything other than human error.
the files have been fine as frog's hair ever since
