The directory is only entered if you have created the directory instead of letting Domino create it when it firsts starts up.

Also only compact -B will impact the nsfdb2 database. There is now a -g & -G compact command for groups. For a size reduction all databases in a db2 group need to be compacted. If you use the the g commands the database are moved to a new group to reduce the storage used. G will do an entire group at one time, while g does just one database by moving it to a new group.

Setting the group size to a smaller number will reduce the chance of corruption and speed compaction. I run with 5 nsf to a group, support has had us set it to 1 for a large heavily used app server.

Hi Bruce

thanks for your comment.
