Hi all,

I have got a strange problem..

Is there a Parameter that can be set on an ADSM server installed on an
AS/400 to disable or enable hardware compression ?
We are using a Magstar 3575 L18 (c-drives) and the maximum amount of data
that will be stored on one tape is 4,999 MB. I know that the default on a
Magstar 3575 C-drive is Compression on.... So there must be something on the
AS/400 Device driver or ADSM software that disables the Hardware
compression..

Does anybody know how to enable the hardware compression on the AS/400 to
get the max out of the tapes being used ??

Any help would be appreciated....

Regards,

Etienne
