Manage the Replication Package

The Managed Data can be stored in a distribution package, which is a compressed archive of the Staging Area.

The Replication Package can:

• Contain a full or delta extract of:

  • The files associated with the managed data.

  • All changes to the data, since the previous full or delta extract.

  • All templates loaded through the Staging Areas or EIA.

• Include only the latest data for the:

  • Object data

  • Class library data

• Be downloaded from the remote Workhub instances after a full or delta extract creation.

• Be deleted manually after a new full extract creation.

  Note: Older versions of full or delta extracts are NOT deleted automatically. You can track the deletions of data in the Workhub using the audit trail. The deletion will be reflected in the replication package through the delete intent attribute.

The Replication Package cannot:

• Contain objects in the Workhub that are not referenced by templates

  • For example:

    • Notes

    • Users

    • Security Access Groups

    • Changes to breakdown nodes

    • Profiles

    • Menu sets

• Exclude any specific import package, as replication is a database-wide operation.

  Note: As replication is not specific to an import package, if multiple import packages are loaded through the import mechanism, then all of them are replicated.
