On that link you sent does not “Hmmmm use with caution, I'm currently working with very large design apps (10GB+) and have mixed results distributing content to de-dup enabled DPs. I left a number of packages, circa 30GB worth, distributing over night, all were still in progress this morning. I flicked de-dup off and they started to complete. Maybe the lesson here is to be less agressive with the de-dup settings, I had it set to 0 days to de-dup everything. I'll reinstate later with 5-10 days” make you question whether you would recommend it to a client?

I thought that my comment was pretty explicit that I was referring to DPs only. As for supportability I am pretty sure that there would not have been a test plan to test the interaction - ergo there would be no support for it. As far as I know, and having asked the question directly before this should not work although not tested it myself.

CM12: file based only, the exact same file twice is stored once only but for the library only. Server2012: Content based and for the whole volume, also works e.g. with VHDs. Use Dedup for example on the source folder of the packages… I use it also for the content library, it squeezes even more out of it. -R From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jason Wallace Sent: Montag, 20.
