To talk about deduplication in Bacula, you must know that there are
three types of deduplication:
1. File level dedup using Base jobs.
2. Block level SD dedup called "aligned block deduplication" requiring a
filesystems such as ZFS to do the dedup
3. Block level called "Global End Point" deduplication
Item 1 is has been available in the community version since the beginning.
Item 2 is not yet available in the community, but after my vacation, I
hope to make a plugin that will be
compatible with the community version. If I can find the time
to concentrate on it, this could be
ready in January 2016.
Item 3 will probably not be offered to the community for another 3-4 years.
Best regards,
Kern

Dear Heitor,
Could you check out my configuration?
I've configured De-duplication on a Bacula 7.0.5.9 - CentOS 7 (
client-fd is version 5.2 - Windows 8.1 Pro x64 ) with the
following properties:
*_A specific Pool for the base volumes:_*
Pool {
Name = BaseJobs
Pool Type = Backup
Label Format =
"${Level}-${Job}-${Day}-${Month}-${Year}-${Hour:p/2/0/r}${Minute:p/2/0/r}${Second:p/2/0/r}"
Use Volume Once = yes
}
_*The specific FileSet for the base job:*_
FileSet {
Name = "BaseFileSet_Windows8.1"
Enable VSS = yes
Include {
Options {
signature = MD5
compression = GZIP
}
File = C:/Windows/
}
}
*_The base job:_*
*
*
Job {
Name = "BaseJob_Windows8.1"
Type = Backup
Level = Base
Client = tom-helpdesk-fd
FileSet = BaseFileSet_Windows8.1
Pool = BaseJobs
Storage = ns-bacula-sd
Messages = Standard
}
_*The JobDefs for the full backup job:*
_
JobDefs {
Name = "Windows_Backup"
Type = Backup
Level = Full
FileSet = "Windows FileSet"
Messages = Standard
SpoolAttributes = yes
Priority = 10
Write Bootstrap = "/var/spool/bacula/%c.bsr"
Storage = ns-bacula-sd
}
*_The full backup job:_*
*_
_*
Job {
Name = "FrankPC-Backup"
JobDefs = "Windows_Backup"
Base = "BaseJob_Windows8.1"
Client = tom-helpdesk-fd
Schedule = "FrankPC_Backup"
Pool = RegularBackups
}
*_The client_*
*_
_*
Client {
Name = tom-helpdesk-fd
Address = 10.13.37.103
FDPort = 9102
Catalog = MyCatalog
Password = "~XXXXXXX" # password for FileDaemon
File Retention = 60 days # 60 days
Job Retention = 6 months # six months
AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired Jobs/Files
}
