Our news spool hit that point when (I beleive) we ran out of metadata. News
says the drive is full, but there is spaceleft.
So I got the comet article that explains the new fileswitch, and how to extend
that metadata.
However, when I look at my logs, it appears that I have over 610000 news
messages. Daily news report: Articles retained 611330.
Questions:
1. Is there any way to do this live, or do I need to erase the drives and
start new?
2. Would a sufficient way of doing this is throttle the news server, set the
expire to like warp 100 and erase all the news, and then back it up?
3. What should I use for the number of pages?
