COMPRESS_ALLOWED

COMPRESS_ALLOWED specifies in a list form which compression methods this invocation of XCOMJOB uses. This parameter only has meaning for TYPE=EXECUTE XCOMJOBs.

This list is comprised of the names of specific compression methods, or groups of compression methods that ":" separate, which the server allows or disallows. The values that are used in this list can be any of the following values:

ALL

NONE

COMPACT

COMPACTL

YES

RLE

HUFFMAN

LZALL

LZLARGE

LZMEDIUM

LZSMALL

LZRW3

ZLIBALL

ZLIB

ZLIB1 – ZLIB9

Default: ALL

Notes:

• Placing a “!” character immediately before the name of a compression method in the list can prevent that algorithm from being used.
• Specifying any value other than ALL can cause only the methods explicitly added to be set as being allowed.
• Specifying a value of NONE can disable compression processing on the local server.

Examples:

• To turn off compression on a server:
  • COMPRESS_ALLOWED=NONE
• To allow any compression method on a server:
  • COMPRESS_ALLOWED=ALL
• To disable the LZ family of compression methods on a server:
  • COMPRESS_ALLOWED=ALL:!LZALL
