Use EdAdmin4 to assign a versioning rule to a partition.

1.Edit a partition as explained in Edit partitions.

2.Click versioning rule list to assign an existing versioning rule, or click the Click to toggle graphic size button to create a new versioning rule and assign it to the partition.

Click to toggle graphic size

3.In Name, enter an unique name of the versioning rule.

4.In Initial versions, enter a value different than 0 that corresponds to number of initial versions you want to keep, or enter -1 to keep all versions.

5.In Last versions, enter a value different than 0 that corresponds to number of last versions you want to keep, or enter -1 to keep all versions.

6.In Versioning mode, select Once per sessions, explicit save or every save.

7.In Description, enter an optional description.

Example

Set initialVersions and lastVersions to a value different than 0 to enable versioning.

If you set initialVersions = 2 and lastVersions = 5, and then modify an object 10 times, you'll have 7 object versions (the first 2 and the last 5), losing the middle 3 versions of the object.

You can keep all the objects versions by specifying a negative value for InitialVersions and/or LastVersions
