I have shadow copy running on a file server here. I went to do a
restore only to discover that all shadow copies were gone except for
the last day. When it reaches its space limit does it delete all of
them and start over? Im unsure how this works.

Thanks.


Thats what I thought but it deleted all of them. I had one days copy
left. So it didnt start over writing last to first, it deleted all of
them and started over. Is that the way it should work?
