Configuring destination efficiency settings

You can configure destination efficiency settings such as deduplication, compression, autogrow, and space guarantee on a protection destination using the Advanced Destination Settings dialog box. You use these settings when you want to maximize space utilization on a destination or secondary volume.

You must have the Application Administrator or Storage Administrator role.

By default, efficiency settings match those of the source volume, except for compression settings in a SnapVault relationship, which are disabled by default.

  1. Click either the SnapMirror tab or the SnapVault tab in the Configure Protection dialog box, depending on the type of relationship you are configuring.
  2. Click Advanced in the Destination Information area.
    The Advanced Destination Settings dialog box is opened.
  3. Enable or disable the efficiency settings for deduplication, compression, autogrow, and space guarantee, as required.
  4. Click Apply to save your selections and return to the Configure Protection dialog box.
