Interpreting my Capacity Report

[PastaFazole]

I run a capacity report to see how I am complying with my SUR license. I want to know if my interpretation of this is correct:

Can I add the 29.89 TB + 30.77 TB to arrive at the total amount of data I am backing up?

Thanks,

The dedup data should not be included.

Why not? If I did not run deduplication, wouldn't that data be counted against my SUR?

You need to count real backup only - those coming from nodes.
