Use this report to view a bar chart of the last day's (24 hours) compression statistics, both data sent before compression and also the actual physical space used. These statistics provide insight into how well compression is working during that time period.
Table: Data Domain Filesystem Compression
Column name | Description |
|---|---|
|
Used (Active) |
Actual amount of space in use for the active tier. |
|
Sent (Active) |
Amount of data sent prior to compression is represented by the yellow bar in the graph. |
|
Used (Archive) |
Actual amount of space in use for the archive tier. |
|
Sent (Archive) |
Amount of data sent for the archive tier is represented by the purple bar in the graph. |
|
Global Comp |
Use this value to determine de-duplication efficiency. Represented by the triangle, the Global Compression factor is derived from the pre-compression (data sent before compression) divided by the size after de-duplication. |
|
Local Comp |
The Local Compression factor (file compression) is represented by the circle. This value is derived from the size after de-duplication divided by the space used. |
|
Total Comp |
Represented by the square, the Total Compression factor is derived from data sent divided by space used. |
