Cascaded Caching and Content Server Aliases  Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

It is possible to a combination of caches and content server aliases (see also Content Server Alias). If you are using a combination, the system first looks for an alias. If the system finds an alias, the technical data of the cache server is used instead of the technical data of the content server. This means that the location of the server has changed. This information is then taken into account when the cache server is being located.

Constraints

Cache server and content server aliases are only used if the client location is known when the URL is being contructed. The client location is known if the Knowledge Provider itself requested the URL. If, on the other hand, the URL was requested by another application, and the Knowledge Provider does not know where the URL is going to be used, the system cannot find out the location of the client. In this case, the URL that points directly to the content server is always returned. The cache server and content server alias are not taken into account.
