i have created some new GDSP and i notice that DDB are separate in 3 ID by type of backup (Files, Databases and VM)
i have created this commserve (CS2) in FR20.11.22, (currently the commserve is in FR20.11.55).
i have another commserve CS1 in the same version 11.20.55 but created in SP16. on this CS1 when i create a new GDSP there is only one ID for the DDB.
Why i can’t create a DDB like in the CS2 ?
How can i have the same type of DDB on all my Commserve ?
Do they need to run a converison script ? or a patch ?
Kind regards,
Christophe

Hi @christophe
Thank you for the question.
Horizontal scaling was introduced to leverage better dedupe performance by separate agents, but under a single global DDB.
This involves creating separate DDBs for the 3 agents, Files, DBs and VMs as data from the same agent dedupes more effectively with data from the same agent. Data across different agents does not dedupe as well.
Please take a look at these links to see how horizontal scaling is leveraged in SP20.
