NBU5020 Current Deduplication factor
Created: 30 Aug 2012 | Updated: 19 Mar 2013 | 5 comments
This issue has been solved. See solution.
Trying to identify a quick way to gather current deduplication factor for a two nodes(5020) storage pool.
Can easily see the available and used space from the Console (Reports > Capacity Dashboard )
However the compression factor is nowhere to be found. Also tried Opscenter with no luck.
( e.g. Something Like 12.5 X )
Any leads would be greatly appreciated.

if you setup a DataMine report it gives you the information pretty redily. you need to configure the datamine policy for something like daily if you are going to check this often.. usually i set it for weekly or monthly then i can review the data pretty easily.
Best of Luck,

Thank you very much,, it worked great...
Did set the policy to run on a weekly basis, ran manually and got the compression factor okay.
Glad it worked for you.. please remember to mark solutions so people get points :)

Chaps,
Where can I configure a "DataMine report"?
Dave.
Don't forget that if you just want to see a percentage of de-dupe you can see it in your activity monitor
Right click the top column - select Columns - Layout
Select "Deduplication Rate" - click the blue "show" icon and move it up to where you want it
It now shows a s a column with the dedupe percentage for every job
Hope this helps
