Move deduplication database new drive
Hello,
we have added SSD disks to our backup server which has also a deduplicated storage.
Now we want to "move" the deduplication db to the SSD disk to achieve higher performance.
Is there a way to move the database?
Are there other components/databases etc. which should be moved to SSD disks for better performance?
Regards

Hello,
i have detached the vault, reattached it and i hve not copied the deduplication database.
So the stroage node is recreating the database. But his is very slow.
i have waited 9 hours and the node is not ready. At the moment recreating.
Is this a normal behaviuor?
Server has actual hardware, 12 cores, 60 GB RAM.
We have added SSD because backup speed was "slow".

Yes, recreation of dedup database is a slow process, not exactly 'normal' , but it's what you can expect. How big is your dedup database?

Old database size was about 80 gigabytes on the old drive.
Now, after 11 hours he has recreated 5 gigabytes on the new drive
i can see, the deduplicated data is consuming 7 TB on our storage, at the moment i can not see the deduplication and compression ratio...

It will take much time - at least 11*16 hours. If you still have original deduplication database, it would be better to cancel attachment operation, and attach it again, now specifying deduplication database (copied to SSD disk) instead of recreating it.
