Can someone tell me if the number of LSUs configured on a system effects dedupe ratio and overall performance of the DD box? i see that in best practices it is recommended that one LSU is created per Netbackup environment. i do have more than LSU configured in one NB environment but i wonder if i did utilize only one LSU, if the global and local compression sizes would be better. thanks for your input.

According to best practices you should make one LSU per DD box. There is no use creating multiple LSUs on the same DD appliance even if you want to use OptDup.
