Syndication properties
You can tailor the syndication behavior of your web content environment by changing configuration settings such as the syndication interval and automatic syndication.
You define and manage syndication options in the WCM WCMConfigService service using the WebSphere® Integrated Solutions Console.
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.
To change the syndication interval, modify the deployment.itemChangedTaskDelay property. By default, the syndication interval is set to 30 seconds. Specify the number of seconds to use as the syndication interval, with a minimum of 0 seconds and a maximum of 65536 seconds. A value of 0 will prevent syndication from occurring. If you set the value to so short an interval that syndication cannot complete before the interval expires, syndication begins again when the previous syndication completes.
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, you must disable automatic syndication. When automatic syndication is disabled, the syndication interval setting is ignored. This property should be set to the same value on both the syndicator and the subscriber.
- Property name: connect.moduleconfig.syndication.inittasks
- Value: false
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.
To do this, ensure that deployment.subscriberOnly property is set to true.
