Configuring default local volumes

The FMS Transfer Dispatcher Server module is used to transfer uploaded files in the default local volume to the default destination volume. There are no location requirements for this module. It can be placed on the corporate server, the server on which you deploy other Dispatcher Server modules, or by itself at the remote site. The module only acts as a trigger for the transfer, it does not actively participate in it. Therefore, there is no requirement that it have a fast connection with the FCCs participating in the transfer. The only requirement is that it is connected with its bootstrap FSC and with the Dispatcher Scheduler. This connection allows placement at remote data centers. A single module can handle multiple default local volumes. The number of modules required depends on the expected store and forward usage, and your environment. The Ticket_Expiration_Interval preference determines the length of time tickets are available for Teamcenter functions such as reading a file or viewing a file. In the context of store and forward functionality, this preference determines the amount of delay between the initial transfer of the file and the cleanup of the file. For example, if you have cleanup tasks in your Dispatcher Server queue, this value determines how long they remain in the queue. Store and forward functionality delays the cleanup to ensure the file is available for any read ticket requests against the file's initial volume location.
