Almost one year ago, I wrote about "How To Wast Space" when enabling DAOS on an application. And I assumed that it might not be sure that the compact task will always do the recompress BEFORE the attachments are moved to the DAOS repository.

Maybe I've missed something, but since upgrading to HF411 the daosmgr does no longer accept the "tell" command.

But, ...
