Checklist for Teamcenter FSC Caching

When the FSC-cache is installed, you find it and its config files in your TC_ROOT\fsc directory. But it only able to start, when the FSC-master is knowing about it and has the configuration-entries in its fmsmaster.xml file. You can add this entries by RAC->Organization->FSC or by adding them to the fmsmaster.xml manually. The FSC-master has to reload the config or he has to be restarted to see and serve the changed config.

You have to add or change one setting in the fmsmaster.xml manually, to force the FCCs to use their configured FSC-cache when they try to access FSC-volumes, otherwise they will access the FSC serving the volumes directly:

<property name="FCC_EnableDirectFSCRouting" value="false" overridable="false"/>

You should check in a web-browser on your client-machine, if your're FSC-cache is reachable at all with this URL (hostname1 is you FSC-cache):

http://hostname1:4544/Ping

You can use a web-browser on your client-machine to check, if your're getting routed through the correct FSC-cache with this URL (hostname1 is you FSC-cache):

http://hostname1:4544/configAvailabeFSCsRequest

and if your FSC-cache serves the correct config for your FCC, following URL should give you the fcc-config.xml:

http://hostname1:4544/configClientConfigRequest

With the following calls run on the FSC-cache-server, you can check FSC-cache activity:

fscadmin -s http://hostname1:4544 ./cachedetail
fscadmin -s http://hostname1:4544 ./cachesummary
