Backing store size reduction

Hi,

Regarding backing store size reduction, are there any additional procedures / hints except:
iwfsshrink run
Removing a no longer needed branches like:
iwrmbr /default/main/www/mybranchtoremove
Removing a no longer needed editions like:
iwrmed /default/main/www/mypath/ ed_0010

Thank you.

Thank you.

THose are certainly steps that should lead to reduction in the size of the backing store, though the last one may not seem to do too much by itself, but after N-such removals, you may start to see some reduction.

Are you trying to solve a problem, or are you just trying to verify answers for some sort of test?

Besides what you mentioned above.

I think you can get best disk utilization by using a file system created with a block size of 1k for your TS backing store.
