Increased file sizes after migrating to the Ultra2

Upgrading from a 10,000E to an Ultra2 and have noticed that many of the files that I had on my 10,000E have grown after migrating to the Ultra2. The sizes vary from doubling to fractional, but there is a consistant increase in the sizes of files. Anyone have any ideas?

Are you seeing the size increase when you do an "ls -l" and get the size or is
the space used in the file system (ls -s / du / df) just higher than it was on the last machine?
If it is the latter and the file systems are using more space, it could be due to sparse
files. In other words, files with holes in them. Utilities such as tar and cpio do
not understand holes in files and when the files are moved, the holes are filled
in and the space required for the file increases. ufsdump understands the file
system and can recreate the holes in the files.
If the actual size of the file is increasing (ls -l), that is strange and more details
would be required.

  • Aso cube size after migration to essbase 9.3.1

    Hy,
    Our Aso cubes size after migration from essbase 7.1.2 to 9.3.1 are double and more.
    Do you have any suggestion?
    Thank you.

    You could try Essbase Security Dumper (ESD), available for download on www.dougware.com. It will export users, groups, and filters into a text dump that is easily read/modified and updated to another server.
    Caveats: only works with native security, and assigns random passwords to users that are created (a log file shows all upload tasks which can be used to look up the password assignments).
    It may help, although it's obviously not going to eliminate all the effort, as I don't believe there is a tool that will migrate native passwords from one box to another.
    There are other security tools available there that can help recover individual databases and such.

  • Help!..CS4 IS INCREASING FILE SIZES.

    Hi all
    Wondered if anyone has had a problem with increased files sizes when opening a document up in Photoshop? Anything i open up is increased by two thirds  in file size and i've no idea why ( e.g..8MB doc opens as 24MB doc)
    What is even more strange is that it won't let me reduce a  file size to anything under 1MB.
    Has anyone ever come across this problem?...would appreciate any help.
    Thanks

    Hey Noel
    Fair Play.
    This is what is happening.
    I’ve got a standard JPEG file that viewed in Explorer and Bridge reads as a 2.70MB (2838,796 bytes) file. Pixel dimensions 797x1000. Document size  6.75 x 8.47cm .Res 300 PPI.
    When I open it in CS4 it reads 2.28MB. (This is the first thing I don’t understand)
    Either way my simple( so I thought ) objective is to decrease the file size.
    In the image size box I have re-set the resolution to 72ppi as I just need to post the image on a Website. My before and after calculations in the image Panel reads (was 2.28MB...now 134.3k)
    Great! .this is what I want, However..... when I ‘save as’ and the JPEG compression box appears it has suddenly increased the file to 1.8MB Large file...and only allows me to reduce it to 1.7MB small file.
    Admittedly this is not my area of expertise....I’m doing something wrong so any pointers would be much appreciated.

  • QT X conversion increases file size

    Now this maybe something that all versions of QT did but I never used QT before for converting movies as it took so **** long,I always used Visualhub.
    I thought I'd give QT X a try and the speed seems to have improved but it increased the file size to almost double using the iphone optimization.
    Space on an iphone/ipod is at a premium and they go and engineer a conversion that doubles the file size.
    What is the point of that?
    If I do the same conversion using VisualHub the file size stays the same.
    Surely apple can do better than that

    Here is the reply that I could swear I saw in this thread yesterday. It seems to have disappeared somehow...

    LZW compression does not work on 16 bit TIFFs, it was never intended for this format. The TIFF format started out as 8 bit only together with LZW.
    Basically all image compression exploits sequences of equal pixels. The chances of two pixels being equal goes to zero when increasing the resolution. After that you only add the overhead of the bookkeeping tables of the compression itself.

  • Increase File Size

    After converting CR2 Raw files to Jpeg the size of the files is too small. How if possible Can one increase file size in Elements 9? Thanks  

    Why on earth do you want to have "larger" files?
    JPG uses compression to reduce the size of the resulting files.  If you're concerned about the picture quality because of JPG's lossy compression method, simply set the JPG "Quality" setting to its maximum.

  • Reducing File Size After Applying Digital Signature

    I have a dynamic  form created in Live Cycle Designer ES 8.2, reader extended in Acrobat Pro 9.4 and being filled in and signed in Reader 9.4.  The form has  multiple (10+) digital signature fields.  In some cases, images (jpeg, tiff) are inserted into the form before it is circulated for signatures.  Everytime a signature is applied, the file size grows based on the size of the images that have been attached as it seems to be embedding a signed version of the form each time a signature is applied.  After a few signatures are applied, the file size can grow to be quite large.  Is there a way to prevent it from doing this everytime a signature is applied so that the file can be kept to a more manageable size?

    Go into the importing tab, and set the options to Mp3 at a lower bitrate, then go to your song and choose Convert to Mp3 - it will then create another copy at a lower bitrate - leaving the high quality original - you can then burn the smaller one to your CD - it shouldn't take long to convert.

  • File Size Discrepancy Between Photoshop & the Finder

    I'm trying to be as brief as I can, so here goes. The specific application (PS) is irrelevant, I think. This is about why an app shows one file size & the Finder shows a different file size. In this case, it's a huge difference, due to the file being an image.
    I imported into PS CS, from a CD, an original image, which the Finder shows as 269.4 MB. The file format is TIFF, and the bit-depth is 16, not 8. The Finder shows it as a "TIFF Document." Now. I did a Save As and edited that as a master image file. So, I have two files: the original and the master.
    I substantially cropped (deleted) pixels in the master file. So, at the same 16-bit depth, the master file should be smaller in size than the original. Right? However, the Finder shows the file to be 433.6 MB in size! Photoshop shows the file to be a more realistic 185.8 MB in size. Why is the Finder showing such a huge file size? Why is the Finder storing 247.8 MB more than I need? The Finder shows this file as an "Adobe Photoshop TIFF file," so there has been a change in format. The file is flattened; no layers, etc., are involved.
    One clue could be that the Finder is storing the larger file size to accommodate Photoshop. If one multiplies 185.8 MB by 3, the result is close to the 433.6 MB figure. The 3 stands for the three color channels (red, green, blue) of each pixel (data element) in the image.
    The original image, however, is stored correctly by the Finder. Photoshop and the Finder agree on the 269.4 MB file size. If the above scenario were true, the Finder would be storing the original file at three times the size as shown in Photoshop. In other words, there would be consistency in what the Finder is doing.
    I suppose I could just ignore the discrepancy, but I have hundreds of images to process, and I don't want to have to go into PS every time to get a true reading of file sizes. The Finder should be accurate in doing that.
    I may be in the wrong forum re: Photoshop, but here I think I can find some expertise re: the Finder, since the Finder's storing procedures are in question, to my mind. It's definitely an app/OS interface problem, as I see it. Simply, I edit a file downward in data, save it, yet the Finder saves it at a larger size.

    ...do you think a lot of cloning & healing brush might have added to the file size, even though I cropped the image?
    Yes, depending on your History settings. The more you work on an image, the more history it accumulates. The more different states and sanpshots you save in the History palette, the bigger the file gets as you work on it, because you're storing (within the file) complete information about the file's state before and after every individual change you make to it. What I don't recall is whether that all gets saved to the file in a Save As, or whether the history is flushed each time the file is Saved.
    I should warn you that I am by NO stretch of the imagination a PS expert. I was still using PS 5.0.2 until last February, when I upgraded to CS2 (knowing it will be years before I have enough hardware horsepower to run CS3). I'm a rank beginner with CS2, and if someone else wants to jump in here and point out that I'm all wrong, it will be no surprise to me. And because I never used CS, I don't know whether what I'm describing in CS2 is even relevant here.

  • Delete group increase file size

    In LabVIEW I create a TDMS file using DAQmx Configure Logging.  Since my users want to control when data is being written to the file, I make use of the Loggingause property.  Very often two groups of data are created in the TDMS file; one containing a few points (less than 20) and one containing the desired data (10000+ points).  In DIAdem, if I delete the small group and save the file with a different file name, the new file size increases about 4 times in size.  Why does this happen?  I would expect the file size in reduce by a small amount, but definitely not increase in size.  I'm using LV 2012 SP1 and DIAdem 2011.

    When using DAQmx Configure Logging to write data to TDMS files, the data is "raw data" directly from DAQ device, TDMS file format is specially desgined for this case to store the "raw data" so that the file size is smaller and the performance can be improved. When using DIAdem to delete some data and save the file, the new saved TDMS file actually stores normal data instead of the "raw data" so that the file size can be much larger than before.

  • How can I keep tabs on the file size when importing from the Event Library into a Project? I want to ensure the movie will fit onto a 4.7Gb disc?

    How can I keep tabs on the file size when importing from the Event Library into a Project? I want to ensure the movie will fit onto a 4.7Gb disc?

    iDVD does not care about file sizes, as it compresses the file to the standard DVD format of mpeg2.
    It only cares about length i.e. max 2 hours including titles etc.
    iDVD encoding settings:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iDVD/7.0/en/11417.html
    Short version:
    Best Performance is for videos of up to 60 minutes
    Best Quality is for videos of up to 120 minutes
    Professional Quality is also for up to 120 minutes but even higher quality (and takes much longer)
    Professional Quality: The Professional Quality option uses advanced technology to encode your video, resulting in the best quality of video possible on your burned DVD. You can select this option regardless of your project’s duration (up to 2 hours of video for a single-layer disc and 4 hours for a double-layer disc). Because Professional Quality encoding is time-consuming (requiring about twice as much time to encode a project as the High Quality option, for example) choose it only if you are not concerned abo
    In both cases the maximum length includes titles, transitions and effects etc. Allow about 15 minutes for these.
    You can use the amount of video in your project as a rough determination of which method to choose. If your project has an hour or less of video (for a single-layer disc), choose Best Performance. If it has between 1 and 2 hours of video (for a single-layer disc), choose High Quality. If you want the best possible encoding quality for projects that are up to 2 hours (for a single-layer disc), choose Professional Quality. This option takes about twice as long as the High Quality option, so select it only if time is not an issue for you.
    Use the Capacity meter in the Project Info window (choose Project > Project Info) to determine how many minutes of video your project contains.
    NOTE: With the Best Performance setting, you can turn background encoding off by choosing Advanced > “Encode in Background.” The checkmark is removed to show it’s no longer selected. Turning off background encoding can help performance if your system seems sluggish.
    And whilst checking these settings in iDVD Preferences, make sure that the settings for NTSC/PAL and DV/DV Widescreen are also what you want.

  • Air 3.9 for iOS - Increased file size of the executable?

    Hi,
    I've just exported a new release of my app with the new Air 3.9 SDK.
    I've discovered that the file size of the .ipa is increased of 9MB (before it was 30, now it's 39...)
    Looking into the Payload, I've found that the exutable itself is increased from 7 MB to 30 MB...
    Is that possibile? Or am I doing something wrong?

        -hideAneLibSymbols
        yes

    I would like to add that, packaging in -XVerbose mode, I found that some frameworks have been added to the package like MapKit. I'm using some ANEs, but none of them uses a MapKit framework.
    Anyone know which are the frameworks actually being embedded inside the iOS packaging?
    Thanks

  • Preview.app increases PDF file size after deleting pages

    Hello, I'm experiencing odd behavior with Preview.app and PDFs.
    If I open a PDF with Preview, delete a page, then save the file, the file size increases anywhere form 2x to 20x. This happens both with PDFs that only contain text and PDFs that contain text and graphics. It is very frustrating because I start with a file that is 150KB, remove some pages and end up with a 10MB monster that I can't email to people.
    Any help is appreciated. I can post a link to a test PDF for people to try to replicate with if it would be useful.

    I generated the file with pdftex. I'm guessing that there must be different ways to encode a PDF and when Preview gets something with an encoding other than that provided by PDFKit, it rewrites the file how it likes. In my case this is increasing the file sizes. I tried finding docs about PDFKit on the Apple developer site, but couldn't find any details about ways of encoding a PDF.

  • Increased file size results when migrating from RH6 to RH7

    Hi experts,
    Not sure where to post this message, so I appologize for
    repeating myself. I am a Frame Expert, but a RoboHelp Novice. I
    created a new help project in RH7, based on an old one in RH6. It
    generated and now the R&D department is telling me that many
    new files are created and the file size is 10MB larger. Can someone
    tell me if all these files are necessary?
    xxx.ali
    xxx.BRS
    xxx.cpd
    xxx.glo
    xxx.hhc
    xxx.hhk
    xxx.ign
    xxx.ldb
    xxx.phr
    xxx.ppf
    xxx.pss
    xxx.stp
    xxx.svn
    xxx.xpj
    Im sure that most of these file extensions were created in
    the previous version and that the file name itself (which I didn't
    list) is what is new, but before I tell this to the engineer I want
    to be sure.
    Size is an issue because this software is being deployed from
    a flash card. the extra 10MB in space could be considered a blocker
    and stop our development.
    Any help is great!
    Laura

    Those are files from the source. Your application only needs
    the files in the ouput. By default, these will be in a subfolder
    below !SSL!
    Sometimes people ask if all the output files are required.
    The stock answer is only if you want the help to work. :-)
    Do note though, you only need to deliver whatever is in the
    output you generate.

  • "Convert Selection for iPod" Command Increases File Size?

    Hello!
    I'm trying to convert a file that has the following characteristics (as reported in Quicktime Pro):
    Format: H.264 Decoder, 496 x 208, Millions, AAC, Stereo (L R), 44.100 kHz
    FPS: 25
    Data Size: 572.20 MB
    Data Rate: 659.18 kbits/sec
    Normal Size: 496 x 208
    I know the dimensions are strange, but it's because this is just a test I'm running on a workflow using Hand Brake to bring content back from a DVD (my content).
    Now, when I drop just the original file into iTunes and then try to put it on an iPod, it says it can't be played. So I use the handy new option in the Advanced menu, "Convert Selection for iPod." This yields a new file with the following characteristics:
    Format: AAC, Stereo (L R), 44.100 kHz, H.264 Decoder, 640 x 268, Millions
    FPS: 25
    Data Size: 1.36GB
    Data Rate: 1609.01 kbits/sec
    Normal Size: 640 x 268
    How is it that the data rate and file size have increased so much? It now plays on an iPod, but why? I was under the impression that usually the problem with getting video to play on an iPod was a data rate that is too high. So it seems strange to me that the second file works and the first doesn't.
    Finally, what is the difference between a file with the extension .mov and the extension .m4v? The original file has .mov and the converted ends up with .m4v. But they have the same characteristics in terms of codec. So what's the difference?
    Thanks for any help and info!
    Cameron

    I think I was able to resolve this myself after some trial and error. It looks like it is all in the name of the file. I've gotten some files to transfer after going into the Get Info section and updating the name (usually shorten the name or take out non-letter/number/# characters and then get the filename on disk to match.

  • PDF Optimizer decreases resolution, increases file size

    I've noticed that the file size of my PDF files INCREASES now when I optimize them now that I've updated to version 7.0.7. The image resolution still decreases but the files increase significantly. For example, I have a 2 page document that originally was 3.2mb as a hi-resolution PDF. After I optimized it down to 72dpi for the images the file increased to 20.5mb!! I use this feature for documents that we publish on our web sites or to send a proof to a customer.
    Is this just a new bug in version 7.0.7?

    MAC G5, 1 gb RAM, OS 10.4
    Indesign CS3
    Acrobat version : at least 7.0.6 or newer (I'm not at work to verify the version)
    I'm having the same problem. Doing a SAVE AS does not fix anything.
    I have created a High Res PDF of a 56 page catalogue using Indesign CS3. I had to divide the document into two sections. The first file is 131 megs and the other 78 megs. I have to print high res for the client. Then I need to downsize the resolution so that I can send the catalogue to the client. Whether I choose PDF Optimizer or Reduce file..., the 131 megs PDF became 1.27 GB and not to mention the time wasted! This is enormous! I assure you that I have checked all settings for the PDF.
    To counter the problem, I have to do a SAVE AS POSCRIPT file. Then I reduce the size using Acrobat Distiller. The 131 megs file then became 21 megs, which is what it should have been with Optimizer.
    I don't understand what's happening with the Optimizer? It seems that there's an update version that has installed this bug. Which one? How to fix this problem? Is there anyone on this earth that knows what to do?

  • Huge file sizes after editing DNGs in PS

    Whenever I need to make a local adjustment and I bring the raw file (DNG) into Photoshop, it saves as TIFF or PSD, which increases the file size from 20mb to around 150-200mb. Is there a better format I can save as without compressing? Cheers.

    Rendered files are big files and always will be. Only render files when you require them and delete them after us as you can always render them again. Of course once you have opened into LR you have rendered the file. The best way of reducing the size of the rendered file is to save as a compressed Tiff as this retains everything in a lossless format. If you don't require layers then why open into PS anyway?
