Use the PowerShare Admin application to replicate a folder on any
existing PowerShare Catalog server. Replication of folders provides
better performance in larger or frequently accessed folders by shifting
the workload between servers.
To replicate a folder:
1) Start the PowerShare Admin application if is not already running
and switch to Manage Mode.
2) In the System window, select the catalog server on which you want
to store the folder copy and click the Open button.
3) When the server window opens, choose Catalog Folders from the pop-up
menu of display options.
4) Open the Catalog window and display the folder that you want to
replicate.
5) From the Catalog window, drag the folder icon to the "Catalog Folder
Name" area at the bottom of the server window. When you release the
mouse button, the folder now appears in the listing of catalog folders
residing on the selected server.
The load for managing the folder will now be distributed between the two
servers on which it resides. Notice that on the Macintosh where the newly
added server is running, the status window for the server now indicates
that it is serving the specified folder. From now on, any change you make
to the folder is replicated on both servers.
Note: In the catalog window, the replicated folder is still only
represented as a single folder; replication does not affect the
organizational structure of the catalog.
