How can I get the <GREG_HOME>/tmp
directory cleared?
Based on the HouseKeeping
task for carbon.xml
, if the <AutoStart>
property is set to true
, all files that are more than 30 minutes old will be cleared every 10 minutes. If you are running Governance Registry on Linux, you can also write a cron job to handle the clearing of contents within the <GREG_HOME>/tmp
directory.

Checkin Client
What are the limitations of Registry Check-in/Check-out client?
When a user want to get an exact copy of the services in your one registry instance to other,then you can use the check-in client to get a check-out of the collection structure of one of your registry instance and do a check-in operation to the collection structure of the other registry instance.
You can use the check-in client tool only for registry/repository use cases. Therefore, you cannot use it for governance scenarios.
But when you do a check-in from the G-Reg checkin-checkout client to one registry instance, it will override the resources and collections that are under the path that specified in that instance . Also note that the G-Reg check-in client does not have a merge option to use with check-in operation.Hence if the registry instance had have some services in same path before doing the check-in operation to it,those services will be replaced by the services added by check-in operation.
Above limitation can be overcome by following workaround.You can take a checkout from both the instances to a single location in your file system and then do a check-in operation to the relevant registry instance.
However registry check-in client merge-option support will be introduced in future and to track this new feature implementation CARBON jira has been created as here.
The check-in client tool does not support the '&' and 'space' characters, and thereby, you will get errors when resources have these special characters. Therefore, the asset names, which are authorized need to be handled by the check-in client tool as well.
