I need to automate the "Clear IOS Cache" option within Portal Administration. Has anyone done it before (programatically, as maybe using a call within 4GL, or something else?). I just don't have the time to research it right now.

I've got a program which redirects some bookmarks to new htmls, and I want to avoid having to manually clear the IOS cache, I want to have it done automatically?

This is LSF9 on Unix (AIX).

 

Thanks in advance for your help,

 

Roger

Roger, I have done this on the Windows platform in my shop. On 8.03 we just scripted the http call to ioscacherefresh, but in lsf9 you need to get past the SSO login credentials. I used a little javascript code to do the url invocation and a one time perl script to encrypt the credentials in base64. This should work on AIX, but you would need to test it out. Are you using this to refresh bookmarks? I can give you more details offline.

Hey Joe,
