Fail to compress FGDB

Question

We have a FGDB with mosaic with 750k tiles and a reference mosaic on it.

The directory size of the FGDB on disk is 6.5 GB

I try to use the Compress File Geodatabase Data on it.

It works for about 20 minutes and then fail without any good error message.

Anybody have such problem?

Thanks

Mosaic dataset is not Raster dataset or Raster catalog. Is it compressed or not?

Testing with a smaller mosaic it did compressed with a very little in sizes (but the mosaic was small).

We are using 10.3

Thanks
