This example pre-hashes the contents of wwwroot, so that hashes are available as soon as requests are made.

PS C:\> Publish-BCWebContent –Path D:\inetpub\wwwroot -Recurse

EXAMPLE 2

This example adds data to a data package, that can later be exported and preloaded on a remote hosted cache server.

PS C:\> Publish-BCWebContent –Path D:\inetpub\wwwroot -StageData
