To add a compression schedule

1. In the Management Server console, go to the Server perspective and expand Manage in the left pane.
2. Expand the Organization or Uncategorized Hosts to locate the host.
3. Expand the host and select Volumes.
4. Right-click the volume on which the file system is mounted and click Properties.
5. Click the Compression tab.
6. Click Add Schedule.
7. In the Compression Schedule window, specify the compression options and click OK.

   Frequency	Select Daily, Weekly, or Monthly.
   When	The options in the When area change depending on the Frequency selection. For Weekly, you can select weekday to schedule Monday through Friday or select specific days of the week. For Monthly, you can schedule the compression to re-occur on a specific day of every month.
   Compression Duration	Specify how long the compression process runs. If all directories are not compressed during the specified duration, at the next scheduled compression run, the process continues with the remaining directories. For example, say that a duration of one hour is set and 10 directories are enabled for compression. After one hour, nine directories are compressed. The compression process stops. At the next scheduled run, the compression process continues with the tenth directory. The process then starts over with the first directory and compresses any new files that were added since the last run. Default: four hours
   Number of CPUs to use for compression	Specify how many CPUs to use for the scheduled compression run. Default: 50 percent of the CPUs available for the host, up to 4 CPUs.
