File-level deduplication restrictions
During a file backup to an archive in a deduplicating vault, deduplication of a file is not performed in
the following cases:
• If the file is encrypted and the In archives, store encrypted files in decrypted state check box in
the backup options is cleared (it is cleared by default)
• If the file is less than 4 KB in size
• If you protected the archive with a password
Files that were not deduplicated are stored in the archive as they would be in a non-deduplicating
vault.
Deduplication and NTFS data streams
In the NTFS file system, a file may have one or more additional sets of data associated with it—often
called alternate data streams.
When such file is backed up, so are all its alternate data streams. However, these streams are never
deduplicated—even when the file itself is.
