Re: Server based archiving

[Chris Whisonant <chris.whisonant@xxxxxxxxx>]

I think the reason it's not sticking is that those options are probably not
enabled on your template. When design runs it will overwrite that. Are you
using Single Copy Template also? This could cause it to seem to get
overwritten more quickly.

Also, when you run your compact -c to enable ODS48 and implement the
compression, you may want to do this:

compact -v -n -ZU -c

-v = enable body compression, -n = enable design compression, -ZU = enable
LZ1
