Delete FSA Archiv. What happend with Dedup Files

[Thomas_L_]

Hello,

i have an question abaout deleting an FSA Archiv in 10.0.4. What happend or what have i to to when i delete an Archiv in the console. I test this and have problems to open files that are deduplicate. I create 2 Shares with same files EVdata01 and EVdata02. I archiv both directorys in an archiv 01 and 02.

when i delete Archiv02 which has the same files than 01. does Enterprise vault know this an let the files on storage? Or have i run fsautil or else after delete an archiv so that all Data on EVdata01 are working ?

Thanks.

EV tracks the items that are shared and doesn't actually delete the items off disk until the last shared reference is removed.

Enterprise vault SIS model does not delete first copy of archive item untill all references get deleted.

That's the same even if you device level sharing (centera or other machnism).

So if you have same item present in two archives (archive01 & archive02), EV will keep single item in storage and keep track of all references. Once both reference gets deleted then only from storage it gets delete.
