current mode of an OST client, you can check these two sources of client statistics:
DR Series system CLI, using the stats --container --name command
DR Series system GUI, displaying the Statistics: Container page
In the Statistics: Container page, click the Client Statistics tab (under Connection Type: OST) to display the Client
Statistics table. If the Network Savings level in this table displays some savings and the displayed Bytes Ingested value
is different from the displayed Bytes Transferred, this indicates that the OST clients are working in the Dedupe mode. If
not, this indicates that the OST containers are working in the Passthrough mode.
NOTE: For information about the supported OST client modes, see
