Monitoring Dedupe, Compression & Performance

Throughput on the DR Series Deduplication Appliance dashboard. This information is valuable in

NOTE: Deduplication ratios increase over time, it is not uncommon to see a 2- 4x reduction (25- 50% total

mentioned before backup jobs with 12 week retention will average a 15x ratio in most cases.
