dedupe with Veeam and Win 2012 - holy smokes

[jpeake]

This is a volume holding a full and some incs of a handful of Windows servers.

Veeam Dedupe: On
Compress: off
Target: LAN
Happy Camper: true

Could you please provide a bit more detail about what we are looking at?
I assume this is Win 2012 storage volume.. but is it local, on SAN/NAS, ...

other config details?

[Yuki]

Another question....Ok, so dedupe gives 87% space savings, but what does compression on non-deduped volume show?

[jpeake]

I don't know what compression alone would yield. But I have to think it would be not nearly as nice as this

[mongie]

Any ideas on how "dedupe friendly" the dedupe friendly compression setting is?

Would it be better to just have it turned off?

[Gostev]

Very much so
