Mike,
The node is registered with the server (AIX) as compression="client's choice".
Compression works fine with regular adsm backups of the system.
The IS and DIR remain stable and haven't grown in a day. This is a 85M test
database, and nothing was done to it yesterday. Only compression was turned on.
What rate of compression should I be expecting? Do the data compress well?
