Function documentationSize of an Archive File

 

This parameter specifies the maximum size that an archive file can reach when running a write program.

Features

You have the option of specifying the

  • Maximum size in MB

  • Maximum number of data objects

. The value that is reached first triggers the creation of a new archive file. If you leave both fields blank, only one archive file is created.

Many archiving objects have a maximum files size of 100 MB by default. The maximum number of data objects is set to 0 by default. For these archiving objects, the maximum size of the archiving file determines the file size.

Note that the maximum size of an archiving file is limited by the operating system and also by the external storage system if one is connected.

Note Note

Since the action Start Deletion Program is triggered automatically for each archive file, you can carry out delete and write jobs in parallel if relatively small archive files are created. This parallel activity can have a positive effect on the runtime of an archiving session, as the database is used more efficiently. If a file is too small, the number of processes rises and the system is negatively affected.

Note Note

The size should usually be between 20 and 100 MB. The size must not exceed 2 GB, or no index can be constructed, thereby preventing single document access.
