Automated synchronization
To automate the phases of synchronization, you can use cron (Linux™ and the UNIX™ system) or at (Windows™) jobs or a third-party scheduling tool.
You can specify a receipt handler in the shipping.conf file (Linux™ and the UNIX™ system) or MultiSite Control Panel (Windows™) to automate the import phase.
On Windows™, you can use the script cquest-home-dir\msimportauto.bat as a template.
automated synchronization with a task scheduler
When you use a scheduling utility, such as the HCL VersionVault scheduler, to execute HCL Compass MultiSite commands, the scheduler process must have access to the HCL Compass environment. In Windows™, the user who runs the HCL VersionVault scheduler must also create the connection to the HCL Compass schema and user database for performing the scheduled operations.
On computers running Linux™ or the UNIX™ system, the scheduled task must set up the HCL Compass environment by running the cq_setup script prior to running the multiutil subcommands.
For more information, see "Using the HCL VersionVault scheduler" in the MultiSite Administrator's Guide.
