ContentCacheConfiguration Properties

Specifies a ClassDescription object containing the fixed description (immutable metadata) of the class from which this object is instantiated.

The configured content cache area. This file storage area stores duplicates of the document content most frequently requested, and permits those duplicates to be accessed in lieu of the originals in order to enhance the document retrieval performance of local servers. For more information on the content cache area, see the ContentCacheArea interface.

A representation of the Globally Unique Identifier (GUID), a unique 128-bit number, that is assigned to this Content Engine object when the object is created. When converted to a string, the Id property is typically depicted as 32 hexadecimal characters enclosed by brackets in the following format: {xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx}. For example, {3F2504E0-4F89-11D3-9A0C-0305E82C3301}.

For User and Group classes, the Id property takes the value of the Security Identifier (SID) rather than the 128-bit GUID. The string representation of the SID is in this example format: S-1-5-21-1559522492-2815155736-3711640725-55269. When Active Directory is used as the directory service for IBM FileNet P8, calls to User.get_Id() and Group.get_Id() always return the current SID for the principal, even if this user or group has only historical SIDs populating the Active Directory server.

For a given property representation, the Id property has the following characteristics:

• PropertyDescription.get_Id() is equal to PropertyTemplate.get_Id(), which is equal to PropertyDefinition.get_PrimaryId().
• PropertyDefinition.get_Id() is not equal to PropertyDefinition.get_PrimaryId().
• PropertyDefinition.get_Id() is not equal to PropertyDescription.get_Id().

For a newly created document object, you can override the Id property of its associated VersionSeries object before you save or check in the document for the first time.

The maximum number of elements for the in-memory state cache. Each in-memory element corresponds to a content element in the cache.

One in-memory state cache exists per server. The state cache contains state information on content elements in the primary content cache area for a server, and can potentially improve the performance of a server by reducing the number of disk accesses the server must make to retrieve state information. For example, by storing the create date/time for a cache content element, the server can determine whether other previously retrieved information remains valid (thereby possibly avoiding the need to re-retrieve information for the content element).
