Rebuild Cache Files for Saved Search Results

CommonSpot includes features for saving commonly used search criteria to share with other CommonSpot users, or to reuse as filter criteria in other CommonSpot applications and operations. This tool allows you to restrict cache rebuilds to pages matching saved search criteria that you define. Selectively rebuilding cache in high-demand authoring environments or during high-demand periods can save processing overhead and significantly improve authoring performance. This tool performs the same functions as the scheduled job with the same name, but allows you to run on demand. For performance recommendations and details, see the description of scheduled job properties for Rebuild Cache Files for Saved Search Results.

CommonSpot always rebuilds stale cache for pages matching your saved search criteria (see Stale Cache Handling). You can also choose to rebuild cache for all elements on pages that match your search criteria, all page indexes or custom elements contained in matching pages, or any elements without current cache. You can also restrict cache rebuild to specific browser types.

Access this tool from the Utilities section of the Site Administration dashboard. Click Site Tools and select Rebuild Cache Files for Saved Search Results.

This job takes the following arguments:

Saved Search: Displays saved searches for which you have rights. Pick from the dropdown. If no searches display, first create a saved search to use. See Create Saved Search, My Favorite Saved Searches, and Manage Saved Searches in the Contributor's Reference for details.
Wait time: For this job, CommonSpot runs the specified saved search and returns the list of pages to process. The value entered here sets the delay time (in seconds) between processing pages, to make sure the background job doesn't use all available resources. Enter a delay time greater than zero to allow more resources for foreground requests.
Rebuild Scope: Select the cache type to rebuild. You can select cache for all CommonSpot Elements in the saved search results pages, or restrict cache rebuild to Page Index Elements or pages with elements whose cache is out of date. Choose the scope of the cache rebuild.

All Elements: Rebuilds cache for all CommonSpot elements contained in pages matching your saved search criteria.
Index Elements: Rebuilds cache for CommonSpot page indexes and custom elements within pages that match your saved search criteria.
Stale Elements: Rebuilds cache for matching pages containing elements with out of date or expired cache.

Browser Types: You can rebuild cache for selected browsers. Check one or more.

Click Run Utility to refresh search results content, or Cancel to exit without running. CommonSpot reports progress and completion status.
