Since a week, I'm testing backup on a powerful server (32G RAM / 4 CPU).

I do a full backup on weekends and incremental every day of the week.
Why my dedup rate is so low?

 

[root@Bacula fs01]# zdb -DD bacula

DDT-sha256-zap-unique: 17612028 entries, size 295 on disk, 154 in core

 

DDT histogram (aggregated over all DDTs):

 

bucket              allocated                       referenced

Total    16.8M   2.10T   1.95T   1.95T    16.8M   2.10T   1.95T   1.95T

 

dedup = 1.00, compress = 1.07, copies = 1.00, dedup * compress / copies = 1.07
