Good Morning Betty, I also use all variable extents and timed switching. There is a small performance impact but it is often (but not always) not measurable in human time. You should get rid of most of your scripts and use the automatic AI File Manager Daemon. It can be enabled online or offline very easily. You'll also need to add -aiarinterval 900 -aiarcdir to your startup parameters. If you are using OpenEdge Explorer then these parameters are available in the configuration screen for each DB. Regarding the AI archive directory, you can specify TWO directories separated by a comma. If one fills then the AI Archiver starts writing to the second one. Both should be local drives. You need to script only two things: 1. Transferring those AI files from the production box to some other box, preferably offsite 2. Purging the AI Archive directories (local and remote). I often keep a few days on hand and delete anything older than 3 days Scripting is easy. Look at the FORFILES command. You should also go to 10.2B08 and not 10.2B07. SP8 is the last., greatest and most stable service pack for 10.2B. There is really no reason to stay on SP7.
