The object store data includes metadata about content,
such as the revision number and the physical location of the content
in the file system. (The content can be stored in the object store
database or in a file storage area.) The object store data also includes
the data for the workflow system that is associated with the object
store. The object store database is updated frequently, whenever object
metadata is modified.
Attention: The retrieval of encrypted content relies upon
information that is included in the object store data. If that information
is lost, the content is effectively lost also. To avoid such problems,
regularly back up the object store data.
Important: Always back up your object
store data and Case Analyzer stores
after events are pruned from the workflow event log.
Some of the actions that can cause updates to the object store
data are as follows:
- Additions or changes to class or property metadata
- Creation, update, or deletion of most Content Platform Engine objects
- Retrieval of document content if content access recording is enabled
- Queries and object retrieval if auditing is enabled
- Interactions with other IBM® or
third-party systems, such as IBM Enterprise
Records or IBM Case
Manager
- Updates from internal Content Platform Engine background
