Veritas NetBackup™ Deduplication Guide

Verify that the MSDP server has sufficient memory

Insufficient memory on the storage server can cause operation problems. If you have operation issues, you should verify that your storage server has sufficient memory.

If the NetBackup deduplication processes do no start on Red Hat Linux, configure shared memory to be at least 128 MB (SHMMAX=128MB).
