Hi All,

I am very new to DPM and have configured a DPM 2012 server on a  physical server with an IBM Tape Library. The goal is to backup long term copy of a dedupe windows volume to the tape library. However, I have noticed that DPM is not optimizing the backup but instead copying the entire raw volume. I was hoping to get some clarification from someone for the below :

Does DPM support dedupe on tape library ?

Does DPM support dedupe on disks if it's configured on a dedicated physical machine with high volume storage attached to it?

I would appreciate your response on this.

Kind Regards,

Jony
