Paul, If moving from a dedup pool to a non-dedup pool, the objects are re-expanded and stored in their entirety again.

But I have a question: If the data is migrated from a FILE pool to a pool with a SERVER type devclass, would dedup still be in effect? And is dedup also valid for COPY pools (as long as they are defined on FILE or SERVER devclasses)?
