Revit Server - Which files cached on Accelerator?

Is there any way to identify which files have and haven't been cached on an Accelerator?

 

It would be nice to be able to browse to a file on Revit Server through Revit and quickly identify if this. This will then inform the user if the opening will take a little longer as it caches.

It will also help identify which files haven't been cached so they can be done in advance to save some time for the users.

Accelerators are designed to be transparent to the end user.

If you really want to know if a specific project has been cached on the Accelerator, you can go through the following steps:
1. Find the project on the Host server.
2. Open the Model.rvt file in a text editor and copy the GUID (shown within the ModelIdentity tags)
3. Go to the Accelerator, and see if a folder (within C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\Revit Server ####\Cache) exists with the GUID name you found on the Host server.

Note: The Accelerator will start caching a particular project the first time someone, connected to the Accelerator, opens the project.

You could also save time for the users by utilizing the command line utility to automatically create local files for them.
