You can temporarily suspend deduplication during backups for a storage pool for diagnostics and maintenance purposes, and then resume again later. When you disable deduplication for a storage pool, deduplication is disabled for all dependent storage policy copies. However, if you already disabled deduplication for a dependent storage policy copy, then deduplication is not enabled for that copy when you resume deduplication for the storage pool.
Procedure
-
From the CommCell Browser, go to Storage Resources > Storage Pools.
-
Right-click the storage pool, and then click Properties > Storage Pool Copy.
The Storage Pool Copy properties dialog box appears.
-
Click the Deduplication tab, and then click the Advanced tab.
-
Do the following:
-
To temporarily suspend deduplication, select Temporarily disable deduplication.
-
To resume deduplication, clear Temporarily disable deduplication.
