A facilities management company uses a private cloud that bursts to a public cloud at times. The CSA is asked to check the amount of storage that is used when the organization is overutilizing on-prem

Enabling deduplication is a remediation action to reduce storage consumption, not a verification step for measuring current utilization.

Public cloud storage reflects bursting usage offloaded from on-premises, not the on-premises overutilization that the question describes.

The question explicitly states the issue involves overutilizing on-premises resources, and in a hybrid cloud architecture the private cloud is the on-premises component. Verifying private cloud storage utilization directly identifies how much storage is being consumed where the overutilization is occurring, which is the precise concern the CSA was asked to address.

The public cloud backup environment is a separate storage tier unrelated to on-premises resource overutilization.
