[Veritas-bu] NetBackup long retention does dedup help

We backup about 45t a week that has a retention of 8 years. We backup to disk and dup to LTO3 tapes with few issues. Except the tape budget is killing us.

Anybody out there have long retentions? Does de-dupe help save tapes? We have few restores, so keeping data on disk is not a priority with us.

Any suggestions.

Thanks.
