I have some questions regarding how deduplication is supposed to work with Veeam.
Veeam deduplication is working on a "per job" basis.
I setup a backup job of 117 VMs (mixed windows 2008, 2012, linux'es).
I setup full each saturday, and start the backup job on thursday for the first time.
So I get a .vbk (=full) on thursday, plus 1 .vib on friday, then one .vbk on saturday.
Deduplication is on and set on "local target"
Compression is on, default settings
Why do my first full backup os 3.4TB and the second full backup that did happen on saturday (day+2) is 3.4TB too ?
The data can't have changed this much ?
What Am I missing ? Is the "per job" deduplication means "per run of each job" and deduplication doesn't work between each subsequent run of the same job?
Sorry it may be not very clear
