Turning off deduplication

Hello,

We used compression and deduplication for a while but now it is not necessary.
I disabled these functions in the storage settings but the cluster is still showing the dedup space savings with no changes. This is after a week or so of turning dedupe off.

I can’t find any documentation around disabling dedupe and what is required to ‘unoptimize’ the data.

I’m using AOS 5:15.5.1 LTS and this is an old NX-1050 3 node system.

TIA
