Description
Reinitializes the dictionary on a DR Series system. Using the --reinit_dictionary command is not considered a commonly performed function. Because the dictionary acts as an index that maps each chunk of data to a specific location, it is referenced during data ingests to determine if the DR Series system has seen this data before. When you reinitialize the dictionary, all entries that indicate whether there were previously archived data locations are removed. As a result, during new data ingests the DR Series system will be unable to detect any duplicates based on the existing archived data.

NOTE: Use caution when considering whether you should reinitialize the dictionary. This type operation is only performed rarely, and when performed, only under special circumstances. Contact and consult with Technical Support before you use this command. |
