I have a Zope instance -2.7.1 running on Win2000. A Plone instance on it has reached a fairly large size and but is no longer needed. I would like to archive the Plone site, delete it, pack the data base and continue. I currently do not have enough hard disk space to pack the ZODB (as room for the back up and current is required). How much space do I need on the hard disk housing the instance after I delete the Plone instance? Will I be able to pack the data base after deleting the large Plone site ?(assuming the new size is less than the space available naturally). I think I will and all will go well but I thought I would check to see if my thinking is correct. Thoughts?

I haven't used FileStorage in a while, but as I recall, you won't be able to pack unless you have at least N + M free space where N is size of the current Data.fs and M is the size of the new packed Data.fs. -- Paul Winkler http://www.slinkp.com
