Actual exam question for IBM's C1000-082 exam

Question #: 23
Topic #: 2

Which statement is true regarding client-side and server-side deduplication?

AClient-side deduplication only works when there is a Deduplication Cache configured on the server.

BClient-side deduplication generally eliminates the deduplication workload on the server for that particular client workload.

CClient-side deduplication only eliminates the deduplication workload on the server for that workload when a Deduplication Cache is configured on the client.

DServer-side deduplication uses the Deduplication Cache to generate a hash code to be sent to the client, in order to run the client-side deduplication

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

According to the IBM Spectrum Protect documentation1, one statement that is true regarding client-side and server-side deduplication isB. Client-side deduplication generally eliminates the deduplication workload on the server for that particular client workload. This statement means that when client-side deduplication is enabled, the backup-archive client removes redundant data before sending it to the server, which reduces the amount of data that needs to be processed by the server.

I agree with In my experience, client-side deduplication does require a Deduplication Cache on the client side to eliminate the workload on the server.

I also agree with Maybelle. Client-side deduplication definitely helps offload the deduplication work from the server, especially when a Deduplication Cache is configured.

Sure! With client-side deduplication, the data is processed on the client side before even being sent to the server, so the server doesn't need to perform as much deduplication work.
