Client full packages

[cnc__guy]

Crawford,

Actually, if you compress your packages you will actually take up more
space on your Deployment server than if you didn't. This is because of the
.CAB files that the compression makes. Without compression, these .CAB
files don't exist.

We are not talking about "disk compression" in this case. Is "disk
compression" what you are talking about?

You need to modify your package details so that the check-box for package
compression is turned on. This is how you do it in OneWorld.

We compress our packages as we have space issues on the Deployment box. How
do you re-compress the full packages? Do you have to re-build?

Thanks,

Only from the standpoint that it makes full client installs faster. I am
not sure of any other good reasons.

James,

You made the comment, "If you are not doing compression (you should
be)...", but offered no explanation. We stopped using compression when we
upgraded to B7332. The world has been a whole lot easier since. We are
constantly creating and deploying update packages. Critical ESUs and our
own internal development don't give us any other choice. Could you please
explain to everyone why we should be using compression?

Terry,

You stated that a full package build takes you 40 hours. We are not an
AS/400 shop so my comments may be irrelevant. Our full package builds,
Client and Server combined, take approximately 5½ hours. We do not
compress our packages. This saves some time but certainly does not account
for the huge time difference. Do you have any idea why your builds take so
long?
