Hi,

I have a question regarding the documents on NOW:

http://now.netapp.com/NOW/knowledge/docs/ontap/rel7311/html/ontap/rnote/rel_notes/concept/c_oc_rn_lim-dp-sv-protmgr-dedupe.html

..

Do not use Protection Manager 3.7 on volumes that have deduplication enabled.

..

Okay, I know OM 3.7 is not aware of Dedupe. But it is still possible to do backups with dedupe enabled on the primary side.

My Customer found this and is asking if this also applies for the PM in 3.8 Version.

Additional question is...

Do we need Provisioning Manager license for future Protection Manager installs, if we want to use dedupe on primary and secondary snapvault relationship? (got something in my mind from talking with PMs)
