Compacting deduplicating location

Thread needs solution

Hello,

I have a query regarding compacting task in dedup location.

1. How long will it take to complete the process? ( Data size around 20TB )

2. Will this affect tape backup since the source location is dedup location?

3. Will this affect operaions like backup, restore, replication etc.. If the source location is dedup location?

 

Thanks,

Mahesh

Hello Mahesh Kumar!

There is a graph here on page 13 that suggests 20TB deduplication should take about 90 hours. Looks like it's taking abnormally long in your case.

Couldn't find any references whether this affects backups, but it's quite easy to test with just launching a backup.

Hello Peter,

 

Regarding backup we have run tape backup it is running in 3Mbps where network speed is 100Mbps. And compacting is still struck in 19%. If I cancel this compacting process whether it will affect tape backup which is currently running.
