I need a solution
I've been trying to get this client-side dedupe working correctly. I did get it finally after much tinkering and reading some other forum posts, but now I am noticing that it is very slow. Between 500-700MB/minute is what is reported in backup exec. That test box I am backing up is a VM, with 1 processor and 3GB of ram. I know the process is working because on the test VM, the network load is low, and CPU hovers around 60% or so druing the backup. Also, on the Data Domain GUI, I can see the connection to DD Boost from that test VM.
So, I'm not sure what the problem is here with performance. I would expect 2,000MB/min or better using this. Anyone else have sucess with the same situation?
