Configure quotas for a second-stage Recycle Bin (Windows SharePoint Services)

Applies To: Windows SharePoint Services 3.0

 

When you enable the second-stage Recycle Bin for a Web application, you must designate how much disk space is available to the second-stage Recycle Bin as a percentage of the quota allotted to the Web application. For example, if you have allotted 100 megabytes (MB) of space for the Web application, allotting a 50 percent quota for the second-stage Recycle Bin allots 50 MB for the second-stage Recycle Bin and 150 MB for the Web application as a whole. You can allot up to 100 percent for the second-stage Recycle Bin quota.

For information about how to perform this procedure using the Stsadm command-line tool, see Second-stage-recycle-bin-quota: Stsadm property (Windows SharePoint Services).
