Syndication
Syndication is used to transport data from one instance of IBM® Workplace Web Content Management™ to another.
- Syndication overview
Syndication is the method used by IBM Workplace Web Content Management to replicate data from a Web content library on one server to a Web content library on another server. - Syndication tuning
While syndication is a vital part of keeping your Web content current, the same syndication strategy is not appropriate for every environment. Depending on how you have deployed IBM Workplace Web Content Management, you can use different syndication strategies to balance the currency of your content with the performance your environment requires. - Setting up a syndication relationship
To set up syndication between libraries on two IBM Workplace Web Content Management applications, establish a relationship between a syndicator on the server containing the data to be replicated and a subscriber on the server that will receive the replicated data. - Disabling automatic syndication
In some cases you might choose to rely only on manual syndication to have complete control over when syndication occurs. To do this, disable automatic syndication. - Changing the syndication interval
Although the frequency of syndication is set by default during installation, you can change the syndication interval to better suit the needs of your environment. - Configuring a subscriber-only server
A syndicator server uses several processes to gather and queue content for syndication. These processes can sometimes impact server performance when run. However, a subscriber-only server does not require these processes, so you can improve performance on the subscriber-only server by disabling the processes. - Monitoring syndication
After you set up a syndication relationship, you can monitor the progress of the data replication between syndicators and subscribers for details such as whether syndication was successful, when it occurred, and how many changes were included. - Syndication troubleshooting
