2913.0. "ALL-IN-1 sites and UNSHARE tool/ASSETS package" by IOSG::CHRISTIE (Chris Christie) Thu Jun 24 1993 17:18

	I have been reliably informed that there is in existence an UNSHARE 
tool/ASSETS package which allows ALL-IN-1 system manager's to control the 
size of their ALL-IN-1 SDAF files by refiling all SDAF documents/messages 
with usage counts of 1 back into a user's PDAF. What I'm endeavouring to 
ascertain is how widely used this UNSHARE tool/asset is within the the 
general ALL-IN-1 community.

	Any information regarding ALL-IN-1 customer/internal sites that 
heavily use this UNSHARE tool/asset will be greatly welcomed.

2913.1Isn't it from ASCOT?AIMTEC::WICKS_AU.S.A 2 England 0 - I was there!Thu Jun 24 1993 18:259
    Chris,
    
    I think you'll find it's an ASCOT bulletin or something as opposed to
    an ASSET - maybe you could ask them as they're only down the road
    in Basingstoke and they have a notes file on node LARVAE.
    
    regards,

2913.2UNSHARE tool updateIOSG::CHRISTIEChris ChristieFri Jun 25 1993 16:3412
	Further to my original note (.0) it would appear that the UNSHARE 
tool was developed as an ASCOT bulletin rather than an ASSET's package. 

	It has been pointed out to me that some ALL-IN-1 customer/internal 
sites may have customised this UNSHARE tool to suit their own particular 
needs. Also there may be other similar customisations/tools in existence for 
refiling documents from SDAF to a user's PDAF in order to optimise SDAF size. 
So I would also welcome any information regarding any such tools and how widely 
used they are on ALL-IN-1 customer/internal sites.

Re: (.3)

Ann,

	Further details about this UNSHARE tool can be found in the the 
LARVAE::ASCOT_BULLETINS Note file (#18.0) which may give you some leads on 
who to contact. The note seems to imply that this tool is intended for 
ALL-IN-1 internal use only.

2913.6In SYSTIDYSUBURB::BROWNSTONEOut to lunchTue Jul 20 1993 16:0124
    Chris, 
    
    There's another varient of this in the SYSTIDY asset.
    
    However, as far as I can see the potential gain offered by this 
    process can easily be negated in an environment where
    diskquotering of user accounts is enforced. You end up swapping
    the hassle that you have maintaining large DAF's with the hassle
    that the end-users give your call desk over disk-quota management.
    
    Instead, how about looking at the housekeeping tools/options to facilitate
    
    	1. Automated conversion of system DAF's using a nominated disk
    	   for workspace (also in SYSTIDY), to relieve housekeeping
    	   efforts.
    
    	2. Full automation of archiving, perhaps by integration SLS
           into ALL-IN-1 (currently being investigated by UK/European
    	   I.S), to remove selected (old, or whatever) documents from
    	   the system, then allow fully automated retrival.
