Dedupe ?

Can someone tell me how to enable Dedupe on a Celerra NS-120 ? I thought it was as easy as clicking a checkbox but cannot find it anywhere.

Thanks,

    Dedup was introduced in NAS 5.6.43.8, which version are you using?

    Jonathan,

    from command line run:

    nas_fs -info

    output will look something like this:

    id = 23
    name = fs01
    acl = 0
    in_use = True
    type = uxfs
    worm = off
    volume = v98
    pool = clarata_archive
    member_of = root_avm_fs_group_10
    rw_servers= server_2
    ro_servers=
    rw_vdms = secure
    ro_vdms =
    auto_ext = hwm=90%,max_size=1258291M,virtual_provision=no
    deduplication = On
    stor_devs = APM00084902216-000D,APM00084902216-000C
    disks = d16,d12
    disk=d16 stor_dev=APM00084901234-000D addr=c16t1l9 server=server_2
    disk=d16 stor_dev=APM00084901234-000D addr=c0t1l9 server=server_2
    disk=d12 stor_dev=APM00084901234-000C addr=c0t1l5 server=server_2
    disk=d12 stor_dev=APM00084901234-000C addr=c16t1l5 server=server_2

    I have already looked on this page and there is no mention of deduplication.

    Open a SR and ask for an uograde because you want to use dedup
