Compression and Deduplication

Hello Again 😖

We’re on Veeam 11.0.1.1261 P20220302. Only using the Backup and Replication portion. No VeeamOne etc.. Am curious if there’s a way to get a summary of what type of compression/deduplication ratios we’re seeing besides what’s on the email generated on job completion.

I assume each job is going to be different. You’ll probably get better ratios on full backups than incremental.

Do I need VeeamONE here to do this?

Other than the reports for email not sure you can get this without Veeam ONE to be honest unless the is a PowerShell command possibly.

This is somewhat an older post, but I believe it still holds true. A Veeam Product Manager shares in a Forum post, & confirms what Chris stated, about email reports having a tab for compression /dedup ratios (aside from VeeamONE).

You just need to enable the Job reports for success if you don't already.

Hi @jaceg23 

Just wanted to let you know, your backup server runs a really old version (out of support already). Your build is affected by a known security vulnerability. It can be fixed by an update to the latest patch of V11a:

Or better, upgrade to V12.* which is the only supported version of our product at the moment:

Best,
