Hi,
Just deployed DLO 7.6 and configuring it.
1) How to consider dedupe server is needed or not ?
2) Since all DLO applications were installed on same server. If dedupe server was used, how much performance will affect to the server ?
3) Dedupe affected to destination only ? Source PC / Laptop files still deplicated ?
Thanks

1) DeDupe helps in saving storage space at the NUDF so its usually beneficial.
2) Hardly. DLO's DeDupe is quite different from BE's DeDupe and is not I/O intensive and neither does it require the hardware specs like BE's DeDupe
3) DLO provides source-side DeDupe.

Since dedupe need to copy to "Desktop" folder.
- What's the "Desktop" folder path ?
- If only 1 copy is needed, then dedupe can be disabled ?
- What's NUDF ?
Thanks

- The default Desktop User Data Folder (DUDF) path is C:\Documents & Settings\User\Local Settings\Application Data\Symantec
- It depends upon your choice if Dedupe is to be enabled or disabled. Having one or more copies doesn't make much of a difference.
- NUDF is Network User Data Folder is the location on the network where all user's data is stored.
