About optimized duplication of deduplicated data

■If the destination is a PureDisk Deduplication Pool: Configure a media server that accesses the PureDisk Storage Pool Authority host as a load balancing server for the source storage server.

To use more than one media server for the optimized copy operation, each additional one must be common between them .If you select more than one, NetBackup balances the optimized copy job load among them.

■All of the media servers that are selected in the destination storage unit must be common with the source storage server.

In the storage unit for the destination disk pool, select Onlyusethefollowing mediaservers. Then, select the media server or media servers that are common to both the source storage server and the destination storage server.

For example, the following figure shows the destination storage unit media server selection for the optimized duplication that is show inFigure 2-3. Host D is the only common host, so it is selected in the destination storage unit.
