You will have to decide which one of the instances will keep the

Hi All,
We are going to be moving our current TSM DB to a new server and breaking it up

Compression and encryption are also much faster in hardware than software -

has offered dedupe that has anywhere near the speed that is offered by

Hi,
Isnt dedup most beneficial at deduplicating databses ex. Oracle and

Even Data Domain dedup thoose types av data pretty well.
But I tend to agree with your opinion about performance.
