The information on this page refers to License Statistics v6v7.23 3 and newer, which added cache management to removed cache invalidation from the Administration: Data Management page (now available only from the Cache tab in the Administration: License Servers page) and added an "invalidate cache" action for individual license servers. If you are using a version previous to v6v7.233, see documentation for previous versions. |
Cache invalidation is a process that clears the reports cache, which X-Formation Support may advise for helping to resolve inconsistencies in cached data.
