Subject: Re: [ADSM-L] How well do .pst files dedup?

Wanda,

I tried deduping them and got < 50% savings.  I expected much more, thinking 
that from one day to the next, a pst should be 99% the same.  I suspect that 
outlook makes little updates all over the file which makes it hard for tsm to 
find duplicate chunks.

Since I only keep 3 versions, and they backup every day, I quickly realized it 
just isn't worth the extra server cycles.  And also, as we know, deleting 
deduped versions is expensive too.

Regards,

Bill Colwell

Anybody looked in detail at how well .pst files dedup with TSM - (client or 
server-end)?
