Simple Client Cache Question 1

[theblockman]

We are using SMS 2003 SP2 and our client cache is set to the default of 250MB. We are going to be increasing this soon, because we are going to start pushing images with the OSD tool. My question is this. Does the client CACHE act like the normal IE cache? Meaning, if we send down a 500MB package, and let's say the cache only has 100MB remaining, will the cache accept the 500MB from the new package and remove the other CACHE'd files to make room? Or do we have to send out a script to clear the cache first? Thanks for the help, can't find this exact answer anywhere. Thanks!

It blows away what is in there to make room for the next program, if the program is larger than your cache size....your done until you increase the size!

hi blockman

I would think that you would need to increase the cache size first before pushing in a larger than stipulated cache size package in. else it would fail with a "not enough cache disk space" message(or something to that effect)

OSD packages are not cacheable.
