 Default

To verify the current state of an RDA client, you can check the two sources:

• QoreStor CLI, using the rda --show --clients command
• QoreStor GUI, displaying the Clients page

These sources display information about the connected and configured clients. When a system is connected multiple times, these sources show the number of connections to that client and the mode. You can also change the mode from dedupe to the other supported modes. When this is done the displayed mode changes, but any active connections remains. There are essentially two possible modes: Dedupe and Passthrough. To verify the current mode of an RDA client, you can check the two sources of client statistics:

• QoreStor CLI, using the stats --container --name command
• QoreStor GUI, displaying the Container Statistics page

In the Container Statistics page, click the Client Statistics tab (under Connection Type: RDS) to display the Client Statistics table. If the Network Savings level in this table displays some savings and the displayed Bytes Ingested value is different from the displayed Bytes Transferred, it indicates that the RDA clients are working in the Dedupe mode. If not, it indicates that the RDA containers are working in the Passthrough mode.

Description
