Solution Soft used to offer a product called Compression Storage Manager
(CSM) which integrates with MPE/iX to provide transparent compression and
decompression of infrequently accessed files... some form of hierarchical
storage.  From their website it looks like they have renamed the product
e-Space.  More info is available at:
