Viewing a report using a specific Cache Server

[acarruth]

Hi,

I’m writing a small java program that incites all the cache servers in a BOE deployment to cache the first page of a particular report instance (for performance reasons). I’ve tried this programmatically, but have had no success. I know that generally a cache server is chosen at view time based on a round-robin algorithm.. do you think this means that it is impossible to dictate which cache server should be used, even by the use of server groups? I tried with server groups but it always goes to the first cache server first, even if I set the report instance (InfoObject) to specifically use a server group that contains a different cache server.

I know its slightly obscure and deep into the product, but does anyone have any experience with this?

Thanks!
