Thanks Good view point...

(well, sort of, maybe, depends on which one you want) If a file changes daily, you only keep "7" versions, so you will have at most 7 copies... on day 30 you only have days 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, & 29 to restore from... days 1-22 have expired due to "versions data exists" AND say the person totally deleted the file on day 27, then on day 30 you only have the copies from day 28 & 29 to restore from (on day 30). I've attached my "retention.xls" spread sheet... now I did my tests long ago but things still function this way. Oh, I just noticed I don't have any reference to my management class settings ! ! ! YIKES, that spread sheet was based on my old favorite B7.3_R35.95_A35 where VDE = 7, VDD = 3, RE = 35, RO = 95 Dwight -----Original Message----- From: Justin Case [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, September 11, 2002 5:01 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: mgmt class ?
