backup to online with deduplication

Thread needs solution

Hi,

Just activated a trail Online Backup to test it out. When I setup the first backup to Online, the "Deduplication" option was greyed out. Is it a limitation when the backup storage is Online?

Thanks,
Aldous

Hi Aldous,

The deduplication option has always been unavailable (since 6th version of vmProtect) for backups saved to Online. This is due to the fact that the archive type and structure on Online is a special one and usual deduplication is not applicable there. There are basically other means to save the storage space in case of Online storage (there is incremental technology used on low level which achieves the same goal).

Thank you.
