Compressing onunloads
Neil Truby asked for a way to compress onunload output on the fly and decompress directly into onload, like ontape STDIO. Christian Knappke's replies are garbled in the archive. Neil said the source and target were on separate UNIX servers and thought of using rsh. No clear solution shown.

Has anyone a technique for compressing onunload output as it's created ...
and uncompressing it directly to onload?
Similat to the ontape -s -t STDIO facility.
thx

The source and target databases are on separate UNIX servers. I guess I can
try something clever with rsh ....
