Can we install SCS target in content server system ? Does it have any bad impact on content server.
Hi,
Most likely you can install it, and it should work without problem, at least it work for us - back in the 5.2.5 era for which I have personal experience. It should not have changed since then.
What are you trying to do? The design of SCS was to export content from content to another server. If you are on the same server, SCS seems to be overkill to export content to local filesystem.
Thank you Johny for your reply .
In my web application all the users are not documentum users due to licensing issue . We are currently publishing documents for those non content creators . Publishing location or target is a SAN drive which is available to content server cluster (Windows cluster). My web application is accessing files from this SAN drive after publishing .In such design both my SCS source and target is available in same content server system . It is publishing fine till now without any issue. Can you please let me know if there is any potential risk invoved in this .How can we rectify this ?
Thanks ,
KBD
Again, to me its a lot of overhead and there has always been an "issue" with SCS publishing - there is NO log on whether a file gets published to target correctly or not. You dont really encounter this if you are publishing a site with a few hundered docs. But if you publish thousands of files, there is a chance that you may lose one or two.
That being said, if I were you, I would just write a custom job to export the files to SAN. This way in your custom job, you can actually double check if the file has been exported correctly.
