Compress Blobs

Post by racerock »

Simple question,,

1) Compress Blobs in Volumes, is it supported in OSE version of Zimbra ?
Its in the Gui,and can be toggled on ...
I looked at comparison sheet of Zimbra versions I note full blown Volume compression is a NE only function.
Compress Blobs I assume is functioniong in OSE version?

2) And if it is functioning, does any one have any experience to share ...

For background my OSE installs are all 8.7 or later , They have approx 10-40 users most servers have 16+ GB Ram allocated ( smaller sites with 5- 10 may have 8Gb)

Without blobs I am seeing a very rough growth rate of 1GB per month per user which is mainly due to attachments etc ....
Trying to see if it would help the use of disk space etc

Any info ?

Why don't you just try it and see what happens? FWIW, the use of "compress blobs" is mentioned in the documentation here: https://zimbra.github.io/adminguide/lat ... management

The fact you've had 100 views and no replies most likely means nothing other than nobody had any useful answer to give you (including mine, as I don't use that feature). ;)
