 In most cases, an automated compression policy is sufficient. However, if you
 want more control over compression, you can also manually compress specific
 chunks.

 ## Manually compress chunks in a single command

 Alternatively, you can select the chunks and compress them in a single command
 by using the output of the `show_chunks` command to compress each one. For
