The ones compressed by Veritas are have been compressed with 'compress' so
that is what I was going to use.  Would NBU know it hadn't done it?
 
Is there any way to make NBU do its compression?

Phil,
 
You can NOT compress these backups manually. This is because NBU does not
know how you compressed them (ie: compress, tar, zip, gzip, sit, rar, etc)
and when so it can not read them when it will need to for restore.
 
If you think this is a good feature for a future release of NBU, you can
send an email to pm AT veritas DOT com <mailto:pm AT veritas DOT com> .
 Whenever I want them to add a feature, I send it the request to that email
address.

Hi, 

My "Delay to Compress Database" is set to 14 days, but I find .f files under
the image directory have not been compressed, at least for 30 days.

I believe this is because our environment is too busy (long running backups,
backups running 24*7) for the bpsched cleanup type processes to get a look
in.

Can I compress these files manually or does Netbackup keep track internally
of what has been compressed? 

Netbackup 3.4, Solaris 2.6. 

thanks, Phil
