When you perform large transactions in Global Workshare, you need to take the following precautions:

  • Perform large transactions during off-peak hours when system resources are not as heavily loaded.

  • Break large transactions into smaller chunks. For example, use smaller select sets when deleting structure imported from TEKLA.

  • Delete small sets of drawings or other objects rather than deleting a large set all at once.

The following types of transactions can become large:

  • Performing Model Data Reuse tasks.

  • Performing Database Integrity tasks. Use the following workflow:

    1. Run the Database > Integrity Command on the Host from the Project Management task.

    2. Run the Database > Clean Database Command on the Host from a Smart 3D session.

    3. Wait for the transactions to complete.

    4. Run the Database > Clean Database Command at each Satellite location. Wait for the transactions to complete at one location before processing the next location.

  • Performing database maintenance. In particular, deleting database objects that users have deleted from the model can create a transaction with several million records. This can take days to replicate.

  • Deleting existing TEKLA data before importing.

  • Deleting large numbers of drawings. For example, deleting a snap-in of isometrics.

  • Deleting large numbers of orthographic drawings.

  • Deleting, copying, or moving large numbers of objects while inside the model.
