Exchange mailbox backup sizing


Badge +2

If we back up a 3000 user with 40TB Exchange data, what would be the expected storage usage taking into account deduplication and compression, with one year retention?

@dshep , a question like that is best answered by Professional Services via your Account Team.  they have tools that can do estimates.

Without knowing how much data in that 40 TB is duplicated, we’d have no way of giving you any realistic estimate.

Agree with Mike. There are some other variables to keep in mind for example, indexing data, whether or not you are going to make those emails available to end users restore etc.

You can refer to some detais here: https://documentation.commvault.com/11.24/expert/28819_hardware_recommendations_for_index_server.html

I would still follow the advice of contacting your CV Team to understand the goals so you can deploy a succesfull environment.
