Scheduling scope synchronization
You can schedule scope synchronization to be run at specific times by defining the schedule with the XML configuration interface.
-
Verify whether any scheduled synchronizations are defined for the portal.
-
Create an export file that you can use with the xmlaccess command.
Here is an example of a request you can use to query the current configuration:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <request type="export" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="PortalConfig_8.5.0.xsd" > <portal action="locate"> <task action="export" name="com.ibm.portal.cp.SynchronizationTask"/> </portal> </request>
-
Run the xmlaccess command, specifying the export file.
The resulting output file contains any scheduled synchronization times that are defined in the portal.
-
-
Set the synchronization schedule.
-
To set a time for a scheduled synchronization, create an XML request document.
For example, to schedule a synchronization to occur at 15:36 hours every day, you would use a request like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <request type="update" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="PortalConfig_8.5.0.xsd"> <portal action="locate"> <task action="create" name="com.ibm.portal.cp.SynchronizationTask"> <startTime>15:36</startTime> </task> </portal> </request>
For each scheduled synchronization, create a separate
task
element and specify the time with astartTime
element. -
Run the xmlaccess command, specifying the file that contains the scheduling request.
Scope information for the web content system is then synchronized automatically according to the schedule you defined.

-
If you want to set a minimum time before subsequent synchronizations are run, specify the
tagging.syndication.minimumTagSynchronizationTimeInterval
property in the Web Content Manager configuration service.-
