Happy Monday!
I have server with dedup enabled, but the are not space savings. It turns out that the optiomization job doesn't process anything and does not finish. How can I see where the issue is? I checked the Deduplication/Diagnostic and Operational Logs but I don't see a clear indication of the issue.
I have a similar set up and dedup works there.
Background:
Dedup enabled on Volume E: (20TB) , type Hyper-V. The volume hosts 1TB vhdx files that are used for DPM backups.
