Configuring Compression Level Settings

You can configure the data compression that you want used on all incoming data to be backed up and deduplicated by
the DR Series system.
NOTE: This is a global compression level setting for your system. After making a compression level setting change,
the change only affects the new incoming data (which is written using the new setting). All existing data on the
system remains in the setting in effect when it ingested (it is not rewritten using the new compression level
setting).
Configure the compression level setting on the Compression Level page by selecting from the following choices:
Fast—(default) when selected, system backups are performed faster than if Best was selected. However, using
this setting results in a corresponding reduction in space savings.
