Hi guys,

I've created a sdfs mount, but when  I do backups using bacula to a file device on the sdfs mount, the dedupe ratio is almost 0,


What is a deduplication block size for a sdfs volume?

hi radoslaw,

i posted some info on this a while back --

the bacula stream to storage is un-alligned and therefore enjoys very low (if not zero) compression on a compressing filesystem.

not many solutions are available -- buy more disk space :-)

cheers
