I have two servers: a 2012R2 and a 2016. I have a data folder mirrored with DFS.
I've configured VSS on the drive that contains the folder on both servers. But Windows is not obeying the VSS limits I've configured. The MaxShadoCopies is set to 512, the size is set to limitless.
In the 2012R2 I have only 26 snapshots and only 100GB of used space (still 184GB of free space). I have only a month worth of snapshots.
In the 2016 I have 62 snapshots in 76GB, but the drive has >800GB free and it's also configured for 512 snapshots. I have 3 months of snapshots.
Any clues as where to attack the problem? I want to have the ability to go back to an earlier state.
