In my experience, which is granted a bit dated, DTACPR(*HIGH) yielded very
little added reduction in file size over *MEDIUM but the time to do the
save, and amount of CPU consumed, was much higher.
I would attack this as a network issue, specifically firewall and/or
time-out related.

And on the i side:

timeouts and possibly trying PASV v. PORT for the mode.

Subject: Re: Ftping large files w/o timing out
This doesn't answer the timeout problem directly but...
If when you save your objects
you set DTACPR (data compression) to *MEDIUM or *HIGH you should get
good "shrinkage" on the *SAVF size.list
WARNING - Time to save will increase.

Is there a way to ftp large files between local iseries/remote iSeries
and not time out
...there are firewalls on each end
...so I don't know if it's the iSeries timing out or the windows
firewall
I have 2 *savf files I need to transfer on a regular basis
..but the server always times out
I have changed the inactivity time to 0 on both ends to supposedly not
time out
..Not
I have used the TIME command in ftp to set it to high timeout values
...and DEBUG T1/T2
...Neither of those makes a difference either
One file is 3.94Gb and the other is 9.52Gb
I can do it from the windows server
...and it does not timeout from there
But why can't I do it from the iSeries
Suggestions please
..no amount of searching seems to help
