We are using Windchill 9.1 M010. Property wt.fv.forceContentToVault is set to true so all contents are going to single vault. Right now size of defaultcachevault is 800 GB (9 million files). With increasing user base in PLM and amount of data uploaded in PLM, it looks like we’ll need 40 GB / month. IT is concerned about the disk space required in future (500 GB /year). We run “Remove Unreferenced Files” on monthly basis, but it doesn’t make any difference.
I am not sure if there are any other companies they have the same kind of disk space issue?
Is there any technology like data compression technique that we can integrate with PLM?
