Server Controlled Publishing with pvsoptimizeworker
When the Visualization server initiates a request to convert data to the Creo View format, the server uses the pvsoptimizeworker to convert the data in the background. This Visualization server could be a Windchill server or another customized server environment.

The pvsoptimizeworker cannot currently be used for performing Windchill Viewable Compression.

pvsoptimizeworker Overview
The pvsoptimizeworker command changes PVS files provided by a server from Creo View format files.
To configure the worker, you must know the Visualization server host name, the port number that the Worker Agent is listening on, and the complete path to the worker script pvsoptimizeworker.
Using pvsoptimizeworker
Users are strongly advised to first test their pvsoptimizebatch configuration before using the pvsoptimizeworker. Troubleshooting pvsoptimizebatch is an easier way of identifying and resolving most issues that will also affect the worker.
The worker script is created in the <setup_directory>, and should be run by the Visualization server when starting the worker.
When configuring the Worker Agent to use this worker, use the following Execute Command:
• For Windows:
<setup_directory>/pvsoptimizeworker.bat
In our example, this command is:
/ptc/pvsoptimize_setup/pvsoptimizeworker.bat
• For UNIX, the .bat extension is not required, and the command format is:
<setup_directory>/pvsoptimizeworker
Do not use spaces in the setup directory name. In addition, the .bat extension should be used when the worker is on a Windows machine.
