Topic: OCS-Mass-Import: What exactly is the 'cache information'?
Hi all,
Have been using GLPI for about 3 months now, and OCS with Remi's mass-importer for about 1 month.
--- CentOS v5.4, GLPI 0.72.4, OCS v1.3.1 ---
I decided to start playing with importing software from OCS but one thing is confusing me: What exactly is the 'Cache informations', visible by clicking 'Dictionaries'...'Software'...then clicking 'Cache informations' within GLPI?
Currently it's showing:
Adobe 5
Framework 2
GlavSoft 1
Hewlett Packard 3
Kaspersky 2
Microsoft 213
OCS 1
runtime 2
Security updates 112
Spell Checker 1
Sun 1
Total (11) 343
I know they are relevant to dictionary rules that I have defined, but in the example of 'Hewlett Packard', I am just renaming derivatives of Hewlett Packard's many names to 'Hewlett Packard'. Yet, no software is actually pulling through to the GLPI.
I have seen some software come through earlier today (so I know the basic requirements for it), but it seems that as soon as I start using GLPI's software dictionary it borks it, and no software comes through at all.
I just wanted to understand the 'cache' thing better, to hopefully help me gain a better understanding of the overall problem.
By 'cached', does it mean 'buffered' somewhere? Could anyone please explain?
