Issue/Introduction

Description

To optimize the network traffic, need to ZIP files to make the transfer faster and smaller in NRI.

Solution

If Network load is an issue for you, you can ZIP your files to make the transfer faster and smaller. NRI support Zipping in a way where you zip one or more files on the Server and then you can unzip them during the transfer.

You have to use the special compression utility "DEF_INF.EXE" Call is:

    Compress 
            DEF_INF <input> <output file> 
    Decompress 
           Def_inf <input> <output> -d 

NOTE : You have to use FULL path and file name for the input and output file

For the FDCC system there is 2 large DLL's that you with success can compress: xalan-c_1_10.dll and xerces-c_2_7.dll.

The Compress command could look like this:

    CD /d "C:\Program Files\CA\DSM\Web Console\webapps\wac\jsp\ei\wl\windows" 
    DEF_INF "C:\Program Files\CA\DSM\Web Console\webapps\wac\jsp\ei\wl\windows\packages\xalan-c_1_10.dll" 
    "C:\Program Files\CA\DSM\Web Console\webapps\wac\jsp\ei\wl\windows\packages\xalan-c_1_10.zll" 
    DEF_INF "C:\Program Files\CA\DSM\Web Console\webapps\wac\jsp\ei\wl\windows\packages\xerces-c_2_7.dll" 
    "C:\Program Files\CA\DSM\Web Console\webapps\wac\jsp\ei\wl\windows\packages\xerces-c_2_7.zll" 

This will zip the DLL's to ZLL's, once compressed you need to change the primer script to transfer the compressed file, here is what you should do (It is important to not have a space after the comma):

    File22=windows-system-characteristics-schema.xsd 
    File23=pcre3.dll 
    File24=xerces-c_2_7.zll,xerces-c_2_7.dll 
    File25=xalan-c_1_10.zll,xalan-c_1_10.dll 
    File26=xalanmessages_1_10.dll
