Re: [LAD] NSM - handling large files

A new thought: Lets say we did store the session as tar.gz, and we de-referenced the symlinks. Means: We have all files related to the session th the tar.gz. So far, so good. Now we re-import the session to NSM: We extract that tar.gz in the NSM sessions-folder. Note: instead of symlinks we have now real files in the symlinks directory (because we de-referenced before creating the tar.gz). Real files should not go to the symlinks directory. But we could have a simple script, to move these files to the "nsm-large-files/" folder and re-create the symlinks. Now we should have a state very similar to where we began. (exception: we did not restore the file-paths we've had originally, but symlinked to the nsm-large-files folder instead) I think this is acceptable - the session stayed valid at least. -- E.R.
