I had not wrote on and NetApp deduplication. NetApp As you know (and other manufacturers such as EMC) provides the ability to dedupe our data to save space. (Some related articles I have written previously ).
Many times I have been struggling to find out which option is best when it comes to provision LUNs that will be deduplicated.
By chance today I found this document on the NetApp Communities, where you need to login (you must use the same engine that VMware because they are stuck ..): Configuring NetApp Deduplication
With LUNs
"Deduplication Create Free space, But Where Does the free space go? The paper describes 5 basic LUN Different Configurations and the results OCCUR That space is reclaimed by eleven deduplication."
Here is the link: Configuring NetApp Deduplication With LUNs
google my space to you so bajeis without registering.
The most common configuration I think is the D (LUN not guarantee reserved space and the space provided in Volume) and E (LUN not guarantee reserved space without any space). The logic is that we like to see the LUN shrink after applying deduplication.
