Hi Team
We have a snapmirror relationship between vfiler vols. mounted the source volume on windows server &copied the files in the zip. The snapmirror is scheduled to run every 2 hours.
I had 2.5 TB of files. I added these files to multiple compressed (.zip) files and the size of zip files after compression was around 500 GB. I expected the size of the volume/vfiler to drop by 2 TB after the next snapmirror transfer is complete.
Does NetApp storage not recognize when a file has been compressed. However mounting the volume on windows server is showing the size of ZIP file is decreased by 2 TB. Is this an expected behavior?
Thanks
