Hi Guys,
I know this is not purely a question about Data Protector but I have been reading PDFs from HP all day and I haven't found an answer.
We have a "HP StorageWorks D2D4106fc - G02" unit that we use as a VTL in Data Protector 9. The device is 90% full.
Here is my issue:
We have a virtual file server with 6 x 1TB disks attached to it.
We plan to move all the data to another server and I am wondering if the Deduplication on the D2D will see the data on the new server and dedupe it or it will be seen as new data and my D2D storage will get full immediately?
Does any of you know the answer to this question?
I do not want to try moving the Data and see if the Deduplication ratio gets affected since I am stuck with only 10% of free disk space on the D2D.
Thanks
Alain
