Documents versions - storing rules

PW_10729315 — Mon, 25 Nov 2024 10:58:54 GMT

Hello,

I have a question about how cB is dealing with Documents Versions in Documents bookmark, when limit of version has been changed.

In example - we have a file, that have 38 versions stored in cB. The Max. Versions attribute has been changed to 5 versions limit. What will happen with older versions? There will be removed from physical repository on cB server?

Hi @PW_10729315,

Where can you set the limit of the document version?

Could you send a step-by-step description about it, please?

Thank you for your help.

I've found some information for your question.

If you change the value of Max. Versions to a smaller value, the versions excluded by the change will be permanently deleted, so you won't be able to restore and see them again, even after setting back to larger value.
