Do Not Compress Files Ending With

The Do not compress files ending with list corresponds to adding a COMPRESS_SUFFIX =.suffix option to the bp.conf file.

The Do Not Compress Files Ending With list specifies a list of file extensions. During a backup, NetBackup does not compress files with these extensions because the file can already be in a compressed format.

You cannot use wildcards when specifying these extensions. For example, you can specify .A1 but not .A* or .A[1-9]

Files that are already compressed become slightly larger if compressed again. On UNIX clients, if this type of file exists and it has a unique file extension, exclude it (and others with the same extension) from compression by adding it to this list.

This property appears for UNIX clients only.
