The value for this entry determines the type of compression that will be used in the system. The standard white space compression is not applicable to the foreign character sets. Acceptable values are:
0 – Not a valid compression type. No compression will occur.
1 – Standard white space compression. Uses 100 high characters.
2 – No compression. Data stored as Read Only.
3 – International compression. Uses 10 high characters.
After compression the file must not exceed 2.2 GB.
When a COLD file has special characters (e.g., ñ, á, é, í, ó, ú), the CompressMode setting must be 2. The special characters will be lost if the CompressMode is set to a different setting.
For all other Compression selections in the Process Settings For: <Process Name> dialog box, the process will use Compression settings as follows:
