Destroying a File or Default Cache

Using the Studio Caching tab, there is a way to destroy the file cache or default PostgreSQL database cache. For other cache data sources in use, if the database server is forced to terminate due to a systems problem, then orphaned files could be left on disk.

For single and multi-table database caching, the actions described here will not drop the physical database tables.

To destroy a cache

1.

Locate and open the resource for which you want to destroy the associated cache.

2.

Select the Cache tab.

3.

Clear the Enable check box and Save to disable the cache.

4.

On the upper right corner of Caching tab, locate the Destroy Cache icon.

5.

Click it and click Yes.

The file or tables specific to the resource that you selected are destroyed. However, the metadata associated with the files might continue to display in Studio.
