Versions Data Deleted states that the number of backup versions to retain is controlled by this parameter until versions exceed the retention time specified by the Retain Extra Versions or Retain Only Version parameter. Since it states "or"....which one does it use? Also, at what point does it start counting down the 180 or 380 days?
Here are my settings:
Version Data Exists = 4
Version Data Deleted = 2
Retain Extra Versions=380
Retain Only Versions=180
Here is my interpretation, but Please correct me if this is wrong:
File Exists
Active 1
Inactive 2 (for 380 days from when it became inactive)
Inactive 3 (for 380 days from when it became inactive)
Inactive 4 (for 380 days from when it became inactive)
File has been Deleted
Inactive 1 (for 380 days from when it became an inactive version, which would be prior to the date of deletion)
Inactive 2 (for 180 days from when it became an only version, even if the 380 days of being an inactive version has elapsed)
Thanks,
Linda
