Service Information Manager: Publishing on a Rehosted or Upgraded Server

Provides the ability to manage publishing objects effectively on upgraded or rehosted servers by retaining unique identifiers of publishing objects.

After a Windchill server is rehosted or upgraded, it is possible that domain might change. A change in domain name affects the URIs assigned to publishing objects during the process of publishing to XML bundle output for use in Servigistics InService. The publishing process recreates a new URI for each object making it difficult to identify objects that existed previously from the new objects. An xconf property is introduced to provide the option to retain the existing URIs assigned to the published objects even after the domain name has changed. The default value of the property is the current domain name on the rehosted or upgraded server.
