Hi guys!
Now that we are testing with TSM deduplication where we have always used a Data 
Domain in the past, I discovered that our SAP nodes have a very low dedup rate. 
After some Googling it looks like this has something to do with the random way 
SAP sends its data to the backup client. If backup files physically differ 
every backup run, I can imagine that this will have a negative impact on 
deduplication.
Does anybody know if this is true and if there is a way to influence this 
behavior?
Thanks for any help in advance and have a nice weekend!
Kind regards,
Eric van Loon
