How to configure dual storage (compressed and uncompressed) on receive?

[David Nguyen]

Hi everyone,

I am working with dcm4chee-arc-light 5.x and I'm trying to set up a specific storage workflow. My goal is to have the system automatically store two different versions of each received study.

Here is the desired behavior:

When a new, uncompressed study is sent to our main AE (e.g., DCM4CHEE), it should be stored in its original, uncompressed format to our primary, high-speed storage, which we call fs1.

Immediately after, the system should automatically create a losslessly compressed version of that same study (e.g., using JPEG Lossless, UID 1.2.840.10008.1.2.4.70).

This new, compressed version should be stored in a separate, long-term archive storage, which we call fs2.

Could someone please provide a clear, step-by-step guide or an example configuration to achieve this dual-storage workflow correctly?

Thank you in advance for your help!
