we installed a new dedupe appliance as a new library. we are now configure a new SP with no compression and no encryption (commvault dedupe in on).
we need to replicate the data using aux copy to the DR site with a straight disk library (JBOD).
my question - if we backup with no compression ‘ will aux copy also transfers uncompressed data to the DR site? because in this case , we’ll be run out of capacity in the DR library.
thanks.

If you’re using Commvault deduplication, the data is being compressed. We compress the data as part of the deduplication process.
The JBOD on the DR site is NOT using Commvault deduplication? If not, yes, it’s likely going to require a lot more space than the primary. Is there a reason you would not be using Commvault deduplication with this DR disk library?
