Predictive Replication
Predictive replication is a feature that enables Windchill to preemptively determine the content that is required at a File Server site based on patterns of user behavior. Predictive replication replicates future iterations of an object without an explicit replication schedule set by a user or administrator. You can enable or disable this feature with the wt.fv.predictiveReplicationEnabled property. By default, the property is set to true, indicating that predictive replication is enabled.
The following conditions cause a predictive replication schedule to be set up automatically:
• A user has set the site preference to a File Server, but the content that the user requested is has not been replicated to the preferred site through a scheduled replication. In this case, the content is dynamically replicated and a predictive replication schedule is set.
• The user uploads the content to the preferred site.
