Vaults Panel
The Vaults panel lists your backup vaults and their locations. Vaults are usually located
on external FireWire drives.
As you add images to the Library, Aperture automatically tracks which managed image
files have been backed up to your vault. When your vault is up to date, the Vault Status
button appears black. When a change to at least one version occurs, such as an
adjustment, the Vault Status button appears yellow. When Aperture determines that
even a single master file has not been backed up, the Vault Status button appears red.
You can have Aperture update your vaults whenever you want.
For more information, see Chapter 20, “ Backing Up Your Images ,” on page 399.
