Archive File Size 

Use

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

Features

You can specify:

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

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

Since the deletion program is automatically started for each archive file, you can carry out deletion and archiving activities 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.

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