Set personal library cache directory
Personal Library Cache Directory (PLCD) provides faster access to repository files by removing network transfers when the same revision has been previously fetched to a work station.
PLCD makes a local copy in a cache directory of items downloaded from, and uploaded to, Dimensions CM. This speeds up transfers when fetching the same revision more than once, for example, fetching a baseline or a patch, or overwriting unwanted changes by restoring revisions.
For details, see Improve WAN performance.
To set the PLCD options:
-
In the desktop client's menu bar, select Tools > Preferences.
-
In the Preferences dialog box, select the Personal Library Cache tab.
-
Verify that the Enable Personal Library Cache option is selected.
-
In the Cache Directory Path field, enter the location of the cache folder on your local machine.
-
In the Maximum Cache Size field, specify the size of the PLCD directory. When the folder reaches this size, earlier item revisions are deleted.
-
Click OK.
