Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: datafile compression
Keith,
For the backup I am copying db files into 'compressed' directory (so they
get compressed while being copied). I recovered db from 'compressed' db
files many times (they get automatically de-compressed while being copied
from 'compressed' directory into 'normal'), and compression didn't cause any
problems.
Though, for some reason I didn't risk to set 'compressed' directory for
archived RedoLog files.

Hello everyone. Let me say first to all who are on the list group THANK YOU.
>From reading the emails I receive I have learned a LOT the past few weeks.
My question here is. I am trying to find a way to compress the datafiles when I copy them to a backup folder on NT. Does anyone have a suggestion as to what product they use to compress datafiles? Has anyone ever used the COMPRESS option on a folder in NT to compress datafiles? If so, was there ever a problem. I did try pkzip and when the files unzipped it gave errors abour the crc checks. I also researched this and didn't find much about compressing datafiles BUT i'm not that good with the oracle doc's yet either.
Thanks in advance for any responses to this email and everyone have a good day.
