Hi all,
we tried enabling replication.content.useFileStorage in /system/console/configMgr/com.day.cq.replication.impl.ReplicationContentFactoryProviderImpl to improve the speed of replication and also to keep some temporary data out of the repository.
It seems to work in principle but we have discovered 2 issues:
- for clustered environments (more than 1 publisher) it seems not to reliably replicate to all publishers
- lots of *.ser and *.ser.status files left over in the crx-quickstart/replication folder, despite the content havin been successfully replicated to the publisher node. These seem to remain around and not being cleaned up, eventually filling up the disk
My questions:
- has anyone used this successfully in a production environment for a longer time (CQ 5.6.1)?
- is there anything specific to watch out for when using this feature (we also use workflows with replication on the author)?
