Agree though earlier versions of Gzip have 2GB problems... RF
-----Original Message----- To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Sent: 7/7/2003 2:19 PM use gzip and see. Much better than compress. I never observed any problem. Regards Rafiq Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Mon, 07 Jul 2003 05:49:26 -0800 I just started getting hundreds of the following messages: /ora_archive/ptxor01/arch_log/ptxor01_1_17484.arc: -- file unchanged It appears to only come from a failed attempt to compress an archive log which is -rw-r----- 1 oracle dba 104858112 Jul 3 04:07 ptxor01_1_17484.arc over 100M in size -rw-r----- 1 oracle dba 71110623 Jul 6 07:11 ptxor01_1_17544.arc.Z logs under 100M compress just fine. Using a -f switch with the compress will compress the log, but the compressed file is larger than the original file. I have not seen this behavior before from compress. Any ideas or thoughts would be appreciated.
