3.13.3.6 Republish

You can use the republish tool to publish all content and versions below a given folder which have been published in a given period. A major use case is the update of a Master Live Server which has been recovered with a backup (see Section 3.8.3, “Recovery of a Master Live Server Database”).

There are certain limitations when using this tool:

  • Because the tool spawns only a single publication, it should not be used when there are many thousands of resources to be published. In particular, for the recreation of a fresh Master Live Server from a Content Management Server the tool cm publishall described in Section 3.13.3.5, “Publishall” is more appropriate.

  • The tool cannot repeat the publication of withdrawals and deletions.

  • The tool cannot repeat the publication of resources that have been marked for withdrawal or deletion after being published.

  • The tool cannot repeat the publication of moves and renames of resources that have been moved or renamed again after being published.

  • If the publication of a new folder fails for any reason, no resources contained in the folder can be published.

  • If the publication of a new content item fails or any reason, no content items linking to that content item can be published.
