Can you provide me with a little more info, and then I think we can understand
what you are seeing.  Are you actually backing up changed data every time, or
are you doing a selective backup and in reality backing up the same data
multiple times?  Also, while you have the number of copies set to 15, what do
you have for the retention of inactive files?

        I am a new user of ADSM and am trying to test out the restore of a
     file which should have up to 15 versions in the server database
     (that's what we specified).
        My client is Windows 95.  When I look at all files (including
     inactive), it shows exactly 7 versions of each file all with the same
     last update date.
        Do I have a bug?  Or am I just reading this wrong?
        Thanks for your help.
