Re: Files to Recycle Bin

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry



Hi Greg,

Thanks for your update!

I appreciate you time and effort. I am currently standing by for you about
the test result. I am always happy to be of further assistance. And the
Shadow Copy is the new feature of Windows 2003, it is wonderful. Try to use
it!

If there is anything unclear with my previous reply, please feel free to
let me know. I am always happy to be assistance of you!


Have a nice weekend!

Best Regards,

Jenny Wu

>I. Shadow Copies of Shared Folders provides point-in-time copies of files
>that are located on shared resources, such as a file server. With Shadow
>Copies of Shared Folders, you can view shared files and folders as they
>existed at points of time in the past. Accessing previous versions of your
>files, or shadow copies, is useful because you can:
>
>**Recover files that were accidentally deleted. If you accidentally delete
>a file, you can open a previous version and copy it to a safe location.
>**Recover from accidentally overwriting a file. If you accidentally
>overwrite a file, you can recover a previous version of the file.
>**Compare versions of file while working. You can use previous versions
>when you want to check what has changed between two versions of a file.
>
>You can access the server portion of Shadow Copies of Shared Folders
>through the Shadow Copies tab of the Local Disk Properties dialog box. For
>more information about how to use Shadow Copies of Shared Folders, see How
>to.
>
>The client software for Shadow Copies of Shared Folders is located on the
>server and must be deployed to client computers. You can access the client
>view of shadow copies through the Previous Versions tab of the Properties
>dialog box of the shared file or folder.
>
>*Notes:
>
>A new button has been added to the Shadow Copies tab for Windows Server
>2003 with Service Pack 1 (SP1). You can use the Revert button to revert an
>entire volume back to an earlier point in time. Reverting the entire
volume
>will undo any changes that were made to files and folders on the volume
>since the selected snapshot was taken. If you revert a volume, you cannot
>undo the action later. You should not use Revert on volumes that contain
>data stores like Active Directory or Exchange.
>
>Physical access to a server is a high security risk. To maintain a more

>network hardware.
>
>When you restore a file, the file permissions will not be changed.
>Permissions will remain the same as they were before the restore. When you
>recover a file that was accidently deleted, the file permissions will be
>set to the default permissions for the directory.
>
>When storage area limits are reached, the oldest shadow copy will be

>There is a limit of 64 shadow copies per volume that can be stored. When
>this limit is reached, the oldest shadow copy will be deleted and cannot
be

>
>Shadow copies are read-only. You cannot edit the contents of a shadow
copy.
>You can only enable Shadow Copies of Shared Folders on a per-volume basis;
>that is, you cannot select specific shared folders and files on a volume
to
>be copied or not copied.
>
>II. Best practices of Shadow Copies of Shared Folders
>
>1. Select a separate volume on another disk as the storage area for shadow
>copies.
>Select a storage area on a volume that is not being shadow copied. Using a
>separate volume on another disk provides two advantages. First, it
>eliminates the possibility that high I/O load will cause shadow copies to
>be deleted. Second, this configuration provides better performance. This
is
>the recommended configuration for heavily used file servers.
>
>2. Consider how your clients will be using a shared resource before you
>enable Shadow Copies of Shared Folders and set scheduling options.
>Adjust the shadow copy schedule to fit the work patterns of your clients.
>For more information about scheduling shadow copies, see Defining a
>schedule for shadow copies.
>
>3. Do not enable shadow copies on volumes that use mount points.
>The mounted drive will not be included when shadow copies are taken.
Enable
>shadow copies only on volumes without mount points or when you do not want
>the shared resources on the mounted volume to be shadow copied.
>
>4. Do not enable shadow copies on dual-booting computers.
>If you have enabled dual-booting into previous versions of Windows (such
as
>Windows NT 4.0), the shadow copies which persist while restarting the
older
>version might be corrupted and unusable when the computer is started again
>with Windows Server 2003.
>Use Backup to perform regular backups of your file server.
>Shadow Copies of Shared Folders is not a replacement for performing
regular
>backups. Use a backup utility in coordination with Shadow Copies of Shared
>Folders as your best preparation for restoring.
>
>5. Do not schedule copies to occur more often than once per hour.
>The default schedule is 7:00 A.M. and 12:00 noon, Monday through Friday.
If
>you decide that you need copies to be taken more often, verify that you
>have allotted enough storage space and that you do not take copies so
often
>that server performance degrades. There is also an upper limit of 64
copies
>per volume that can be stored before the oldest copy is deleted. If shadow
>copies are taken too often, this limit might be reached very quickly, and
>older copies could be lost at a rapid rate.
>
>5. Before deleting a volume that is being shadow copied, delete the
>scheduled task for creating shadow copies.
>If the volume is deleted without deleting the shadow copy task, the
>scheduled task will fail and an Event ID: 7001 error will be written to
the
>event log. Delete the task before deleting the volume to avoid filling the
>event log with these errors.
>
>6. Use an allocation unit size of 16 kilobytes (KB) or larger when
>formatting a source volume on which Shadow Copies of Shared Folders will
be
>enabled.
>If you plan to defragment the source volume on which Shadow Copies of
>Shared Folders is enabled, it is recommended that you set the cluster
>allocation unit size to be 16 KB or larger when you initially format the
>source volume. If you do not, the number of changes caused by
>defragmentation can cause previous versions of files to be deleted.
>
>7. If you require NTFS file compression on the source volume, you cannot
>use an allocation unit size larger than 4 KB. In this case, when you
>defragment a volume that is very fragmented, you may lose older shadow
>copies faster than expected.
>
>Hope above information helps! if you have any further concern or question
>on the issue please feel free to let me know. I am looking forward to your
>reply!

>Have a nice day!
