Maintain Item Cache

Definition

UWL caches items from different provider systems. This caching is done periodically as specified in the configuration XML for a particular item type.

You must clear the cache under the following cases:

  • ItemTypes are customized.

  • Systems are removed from portal landscape or a system configuration is removed from the UWL systems configuration page.

Cache Admin IView

To clear the cache, use the Cache Admin IView. Cache can be cleared for all systems or a particular system.

  • Select the dropdown list for System Alias, only those registered systems which have items in UWL cache appear in the list. If a system does not have any items in UWL cache it does not appear in the list.

  • Choose Clear Cache.

  • Choose Clear Expired Items to remove all expired items from the cache.
