I don't like client side compression unless I am network constrained. In almost all cases (and certainly all cases I have tried) compression actually increased elapsed backup times. Most networks are sufficient to perform backups without interupting other traffic so don't compress.
I'm thinking this .nsf file is newly arrived on your server and that it is compressed. YOu haven't seen this before because you haven't had this file before. I'll wager that turning compression off will fix this problem for you. Kelly J. Lipp Storage Solutions Specialists, Inc.

Compression was on so I decided to turn it off to see what happens tonight. I did restart the services to catch these changes. Here is what the error log shows as it relates to that specified file. It is not that big, 3Gb, so it should have went to the disk pool. There was 35gb of other files that did not have problems. 10/03/2001 00:34:26 ANS1228E Sending of object '\\cp-its-domapp01\e$\notes\data\bizopsh4.nsf' failed 10/03/2001 00:34:27 ANS1311E Server out of data storage space Hopefully the compression option will fix this. I have noticed some posts related to compression and was wondering what everyones thoughts were on it.
