Subject: [ADSM-L] Advice for archiving 80 billion of small files.

Hi all,

I need advice.
I must archive 80 billion small files, but that is not possible, as I see it.
since it will fill in the TSM's Database about 73 Tb.
The filespace is mounted on a Linux server.
Is there a way to pack/zip the files, so it's a smaller number of files.
anybody who has tried this ??

Regards,

Bo Nielsen
