(server version 5.00 or later)
(Default = 2)
DISK-COMPRESSION-TYPE 0 | 2 | 3
Specifies or disables the compression algorithm used for storing data on disk, primarily history.
The following selections are available:
0 - None
2 - Type 2 (Default)
3 - Type 3
None is available in MOMI Server version 5.00 or later to activate and process. This selection must not be chosen if there is any possibility that MOMI data may be accessed with an older version of the server.
Type 2 is the default and is present in MOMI Server versions 3.xx, 4.xx and 5.xx. No keyword was previously provided to access this capability. This is the default an provides the highest levels of data compatibility.
Type 3 is available in MOMI server version 5.00 or alter to activate and process. This type compresses longer strings of repeat data than Type 2 and generally provides a higher level of compression. This selection must not be chosen if there is any possibility that MOMI data may be accessed with an older version of the server.
A newer version of the MOMI server can read data created from an older server version. No data conversion is required. However, and older version of the MOMI server cannot read data created by a newer server version if the compression type is not known.
The default is highly recommended at this time.
Example:
== use new disk compression
