Data Deduplication Functions
This section describes the deduplication options on the Setup and Tools menus, which enable you to setup, administer, and manage data deduplication on your StorNext system.
Deduplication Administration
The Tools > Replication/Deduplication > Administration screen allows you to view the number of pending files and bytes remaining to be deduplicated (or replicated or truncate). See Replication Administration.
On this screen you can also pause or resume deduplication. The process for pausing or resuming deduplication is identical to pausing or resuming replications. For more information, see Replication Administration.
Deduplication Reports
There are two reports for deduplication: Policy Activity and Policy Summary.
-
The Policy Activity report displays deduplication performance statistics.
-
The Policy Summary report displays deduplication-related information for each policy.
Both of these reports also show information related to replication. Access these deduplication reports by choosing Replication/Deduplication from the Reports menu. For more information about deduplication reports, see Replication / Deduplication Reports.
