that is because the container (cloud or directory) manages deduplication. As the data is ingested, Spectrum Protect detemines if the data is to be deduplicated. Inside the storage pool, you will see two types of containers, a container that is deduplicated and a non-deduplicated. To answer your question, yes you can create a deduplicated IBM Cloud Object Storage System (ICOSS) (formerly cleversafe) storage pool. Please be aware of the differences between Block storage pools and Object storage pools. The Object storage pool will give you the ability to manage Exabytes of data efficiently, but there is a cost to be able to do that, which is performance. Object storage pools should be used for unstructured data backups that require a rare restore and archives of structured data

I can find that there are flags to enable / disable encryption for on-premises however there are no flags to enable for disable for dedduplication nor compression. Thanks
