NetBackup Deduplication to MSDP Savings - By Clients
This report provides a view of clients that are receiving poor deduplication savings in your environment. You can sort the Deduplication Savings % column in ascending order to filter the clients receiving least deduplication savings at the top. You can investigate such clients to improve their deduplication savings.
To identify the clients receiving poor deduplication:
Click the Deduplication Savings % column header to sort it in ascending order. Along with the least percentage savings, the clients receiving least deduplication savings are filtered at the in the Client column.
Click the respective entries in the Client and Primary Server columns to drilldown and check the host details.
Click the respective entries in the Total Deduplication Jobs column to drilldown and check the policy name and the types of files being protected in the MSDP.
Note:
Since compressed files or files with net new changes, such as Oracle REDO log files are prone to poor deduplication savings, you must use a separate policy and assign a non-MSDP pool to save on their backup costs.
