Setting maximum sizes on libraries

Use WikisLibraryService commands to set maximum sizes on libraries by assigning them a policy. A library is the pages, attachments, and other data that make up a wiki. A policy sets a maximum size for a library.

To run administrative commands, you must use the wsadmin client. For more information, see Starting the wsadmin client.

  1. Start the wsadmin client.

  2. Start the Wikis Jython script interpreter using the following command:

    execfile("wikisAdmin.py")
    
  3. Create a policy to specify the library size. For more information, see Working with Wikis policies.

  4. Run the following commands to set maximum sizes on libraries:

    WikisLibraryService.assignPolicy(string libraryId, string policyId) : Assigns a policy to a library. A library includes the pages, attachments, and other data that make up a wiki. It includes all wiki page versions but does not include metadata such as comments. It also includes all wiki page versions but does not include metadata such as comments. A policy sets a maximum size for a wiki.

    If the task succeeds, no message is printed.
    
    Parameters:
    
    libraryId
    :   The library ID in the following standard Universally Unique Identifier \(UUID\) format: 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000.
    
    policyId
    :   The policy ID in the following standard Universally Unique Identifier \(UUID\) format: 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000.
    
    For example:
    
    ```
    WikisLibraryService.assignPolicy("f0d01111-9b21-4dd8-b8be-8825631cb84b",
       "2d93497d-065a-4022ae25-a4b52598d11a")
    ```
    

    WikisLibraryService.assignPolicyBatch(string filePath) : Assigns policies that are specified in a text file. You must create this text file and save it in on the server where you are running the wsadmin client. The file must contain a list of library-policy ID pairs, one pair per line, with values separated by a comma. For example: libraryId, policyId. Extra white space is ignored.

    A library is the pages, attachments, and other data that make up a wiki. It includes all wiki page versions, but does not include metadata such as comments. It includes all wiki page versions, but does not include metadata such as comments.
    
    Parameters:
    
    filePath
    :   The full path to the text file, as a string.
    
    For example:
    
    ```
    WikisLibraryService.assignPolicyBatch("C:/connections/assign_policies.txt")
    ```
