- It *should* only compress once a day, by default. The interval is
- controlled by the logical FLQ_RECLAIM_WAIT, which defaults to
- "1 00:00:00.00". The other logicals are FLQ_CHECK_WAIT and
- FLQ_PURGE_WAIT---they're described in section 6.1 of the MX manager's
- guide.
-
- Because I run JANTIDY every night at 3:45, I always bring MX down and
- do the CONVERT myself, then bring MX back up. I had to set
- FLQ_RECLAIM_WAIT to "2 00:00:00", though, because occasionally the
- interval would expire before JANTIDY got finished with its business.
-
- In case anyone is interested, I've include my MX_JANTIDY.COM below.
- I call it from JANTIDY right before Jnet is restarted.
