# PreCompactionBackup

Set `PreCompactionBackup` to `True` to automatically perform a backup of key files whenever a DRECOMPACT index action is sent (either from a Web browser or by an IDOL Content Component schedule). IDOL Content Component backs up the files before it compacts the data index, so that you can restore them if an error occurs.

Set `PreCompactionBackup` to `False` if you do not want to back up before compacting (a backup requires significant disk space).

If you set BackupCompression to `True`, IDOL Content Component also compresses the backup according to the value of BackupCompressionLevel.

Type: | Boolean
Default: | True
Required: | No
Configuration Section: | Schedule
Example: | `PreCompactionBackup=False`
