This BRARCHIVE command option sets compression mode.

Default value: no (no compression)

See -k|-compress.

The option -k only has practically no meaning for BRARCHIVE as the information is not saved in the database. See Hardware Compression for BRBACKUP. It can only be used to check the compression rate of offline redo log files.
