Displaying Job Details in the Executing State in the Publish Monitor in a Clustered Environment
Follow these steps to allow the Publish Monitor to display the Job Details of jobs in the EXECUTING state in a clustered environment:
• Windows cluster
a. Share a pubtemp folder from the main Background MethodServer machine.
b. Map the shared folder as a network drive on all the secondary nodes in the cluster.
c. Set the publish.tempdir property in the wvs.properties file on each secondary node to point to the newly mapped drive location; in this example, drive X:
xconfmanager -t codebase\wvs.properties -s
"publish.tempdir=X:\" -p
"publish.tempdir=X:\" -p
 |
Mapped drives may not be accessible to Windchill started as a Windows Service, but it is possible to resolve this by using the Windows "NET USE" command to explicitly map the drive before starting Windchill. See Article CS31176 for more information.

• UNIX cluster
a. Share the <WindchillHome>\tmp\pubtemp folder on the main Background MethodServer machine using NFS.
b. Mount the shared NFS folder on each secondary node in the cluster.
c. Set the publish.tempdir property in the wvs.properties file on each secondary node to point to the newly mounted location; in this example, /mnt/pubtemp:
xconfmanager -t <path>/codebase/wvs.properties -s
"publish.tempdir=/mnt/pubtemp" -p
"publish.tempdir=/mnt/pubtemp" -p
