                I've searched the archives but I can't really find the answer 
I'm looking for.
                Running on version 6.3.1.0.
                I have a primary storage pool running dedup. I run the "ID 
DEDUP" command, the reclamation command, and the expiration command throughout 
the daily cycle.

                I run the Q STGP F=D command to check the "Duplicate Data Not 
Stored" numbers and I'm getting 39% right now. Which sounds pretty good, I 
guess.

                My question is how to I tell if I'm running the dedup processes 
aggressively enough. Can I do something to increase that number?
                I realize that the dedup processes are never really finished 
because of the new data that is constantly coming in and old data is getting 
expired.

                Is there something I can look at to be able to tell if I need 
to adjust the ID DUP commands I'm running? More processes, less processes or 
change how long I run it...

                Something that tells me how much data has not been deduped yet 
versus how much has been processed.

                Is that kind of info accessible?
