topic Content Binary Replication in Alfresco Archive https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/content-binary-replication/m-p/271379#M224509 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Hi,</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>We have a DR env to which we replicate the DB and File system. The file system replication is done through lsyncd and I believe the lsyncd program is configured to monitor the root /contentstore directory. Any changes to the files will be replicated instantaneously to DR. Since it monitors the root contentstore directory (which includes content from the year 2010, 2011 &amp; 2012), it puts the lsyncd program on heavy load. We are thinking of changing the lsyncd config to monitor only the current year's binaries. </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>The question is - Is there any scenario in Alfresco where a content binary file gets "updated"? For e.g - a content that got created in 2010 is modified, will it modify the actual binary file that is stored in /contentstore/2010/&lt;month&gt;/&lt;day&gt;/&lt;hour&gt;/&lt;min&gt;/&lt;sec&gt; or will it create a new binary file under /contentstore/</SPAN><STRONG>2012</STRONG><SPAN>/&lt;month&gt;/&lt;day&gt;/&lt;hour&gt;/&lt;min&gt;/&lt;sec&gt;? We just want to make sure that reducing the scope of lsyncd to monitor only the current year's directory wont break anything.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Thanks</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Mon, 30 Jul 2012 15:51:01 GMT unknown-user 2012-07-30T15:51:01Z Content Binary Replication https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/content-binary-replication/m-p/271379#M224509 Hi,We have a DR env to which we replicate the DB and File system.

If we exclude 2010 &amp; 2011 directories from replication, wont it create an issue in this scenario?</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Mon, 30 Jul 2012 16:33:13 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/content-binary-replication/m-p/271381#M224511 unknown-user 2012-07-30T16:33:13Z Re: Content Binary Replication https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/content-binary-replication/m-p/271382#M224512 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>No content is not moved except Once it's no longer referenced,&nbsp; in which case it's moved to contentstore.deleted.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>You may (or may not).
