Introduction
HCL VersionVault MultiSite
add
s
a powerful capability to
HCL VersionVault
. With
MultiSite
, developers at different locations can use the same
HCL VersionVault
versioned object base (VOB)
.
For
HCL VersionVault
, each location (site) has its own copy (replica) of the VOB.
At any time, changes made in one replica can be sent in update packets to other replicas. You can manage replicas by using the command-line tools.

HCL
Compass
MultiSite
, you need to plan your implementation.
MultiSite command set
This section summarizes the commands for
HCL
VersionVault
MultiSite
and
HCL
VersionVault
that display
HCL VersionVault MultiSite
information.
There are a series of
MultiSite
commands and API functions that display or modify
MultiSite
information.
Packet transportation methods and configuration
The method you choose for transporting packets between replicas depends on connectivity. If your replicas do not have IP connectivity, you must use a file-based transport method. If your replicas have connectivity, you can use the store-and-forward facility.
Feature levels
Feature levels allow different replica hosts in a VOB family to run different versions of
HCL VersionVault
. You can raise the feature level of either a single replica host or an entire VOB family.
Creating VOB replicas
Before creating a replica, you must make decisions about branching, mastership, identities and permissions preservation, and method of packet delivery.
Replica synchronization
Replica synchronization uses the same export-transport-import procedure that is used during replica creation.
Administering replicas
Using
MultiSite
for VOB backup and interoperability
You can use
HCL VersionVault MultiSite
to back up a VOB and to provide access to VOBs in a heterogeneous network.
