Employ Content Move module in your livelink identify your 55000 documents and move them into AS with a job .Make sure your AS supports a Pool that supports "Compression"
Its compression algorithm is the same as what you would have done in a program.
If you have never worked in AS before
Install and configure AS is very different from livelink as in Livelink you can make the installer do
all the activities.In AS the DB- the shell has to be pre-created tested before you can run the installer
Then you have to learn OTDS
After that it should be easy.
Keep most at defaults if you don't know what to change.
Test adding a file through DSH or DSCLIENT
Now on the livelink side Content Move
Then make sure AS is also now available as a Provider,you should see AS available as the drop down list when you go and select "Storage Providers"
Once a file is in livelink livelink records its file size so if you change its size it is going to show a lot of errors.
Or if you want to avoid AS you can do WR, LAPI, SOAP,REST or OI/OE whatever is your preferred way.
Well, if I called the wrong number, why did you answer the phone?
