Hello,
I have the following question:
I am currently migrating a customer from traditional disk/tape pools to a directory container pool setup (using TSM 8.1.1). So far the experience is great (great savings, local tape protection pools are a big step forward compared to traditional copy pools for file pools with dedup).
But I am unsure about one thing:
Should I use client side dedup and compression when sending data to a directory container pool or should I use inline (server side) dedup and compression? I know that each has its benefits. But I am unsure if there are difference in terms of dedup ratio and if I can mix both.
Thanks for any insights you may have!
