# Statistics Compression Configuration Parameters

This section describes the `StatsCompression` configuration settings that control how Coordinator compresses old statistical data.

NOTE: If you use a shared statistics database for Coordinator and Controller components, you must not configure statistics compression in both the Coordinator and Controller configuration files.

Similarly, if you have multiple Coordinator components set up with the same configuration, for high availability, you must configure statistics compression in only one Coordinator.

For consistency, when you use a shared statistics database, Micro Focus recommends that you configure statistics compression only in the Controller components.

For example:

    [StatsCompression]
    Levels=3
    TemporaryDataTimeout=3600
    0=CompressLevel0
    1=CompressLevel1
    2=ThrowAway

    [CompressLevel0]
    MinAge=3600
    Interval=120

    [CcompressLevel1]
    MinAge=86400
    Interval=3600

    [ThrowAway]
    MinAge=2592000
    Interval=0
