What is a characteristic of target-based inline deduplication?

A.
Deduplication processing occurs on the client before backup data is sent to the backup device
B.
Backup data is stored on the backup device and then deduplication is performed
C.
Changes must be made in the backup software to implement deduplication
D. Deduplication processing occurs at the backup device before it is stored on the backup device
Correct: D
“Target-based data deduplication is an alternative to source-based data deduplication.
Target-based data deduplication occurs at the backup device, which offloads the
backup client from the deduplication process. Figure 10-20 shows target-based
data deduplication.
In this case, the backup client sends the data to the backup device and the
data is deduplicated at the backup device, either immediately (inline) or at a
scheduled time (post-process)”
