Environment
Netbackup version = 7.5
OS version = win2008R2
I am able to take dedup backup for Exchange 2010. But dont able to see a big difference. Some time I feel that data is not deduplicating. I want to see the dedup %. is there any command ? (without NetBackup OpsCenter)
Solved! Go to Solution.

Activity moniter has a tab called Deduplication , you can see the deduplication ratio for each job from activity moniter.
if you are using admin console.. make sure you select the coloum to see that..

What deduplication storage are you using?

deduplication storage ??

What type of storage unit does the exchange backup go to.
for deduplicatrion to occour data must be send to a MSDP pool or a OST enabled device like Data Domain.

You can see MSDP dedupe rate in the GUI: Media and Device Management > Credentials > Storage Server.
Select Storage Server, Edit, Change
or Activity Monitor as per Ram's suggestion.
See Monitoring the MSDP deduplication rate:

PS:
I am assuming this is MSDP:

Offcourse I am using MSDP pool :)

Thanks Mariaane. I want to see the dedup ratio for a particular backup. Suppose the backup size is 100GB due to dedup and without dedup it could be 150GB.
@Ram I am only able to see the job overview and details status tab under Activity Monitor

Zahid,
you no need to double click on the job and open up the pop up..
in the activity moniter screen it self you will have the one tab along with job id, policy name, storage unit name, start time, end time.... etc...

Backup size. I want to differentiate the backup size with and without dedup

NBU will still catalog and report entire size but only store unique data.
That is how dedupe works.
As per my 1st reply - look in Job details for the specific job. You will see entries such as:
scanned: ######## KB, CR sent: #### KB, CR sent over FC: 0 KB, dedup: ##.# %, cache disabled

Offcourse .....
Not a very nice statement. You are assuming that everybody knows you are using MSDP but you have never said so. Not everyone saw your previous post.
There are many third-party dedupe appliances out there that are used and supported by NBU.
If you don't tell us, don't expect anyone to assume.
