Re: IFS Save Issues - Save as CLOB's instead?

[Charles Wilt <charles.wilt@xxxxxxxxx>]

Interesting thought...though I assume you meant BLOB instead of CLOB...

Based on what little I know about how BLOBs are stored and the fact that
the OS backs up large objects faster than a bunch of small ones, I would
expect the answer to be yes.

But I don't know for sure.  Might be worthwhile asking IBM about.
