Charles,

Thanks, that’s useful information to have.

I agree that the Previous Versions feature isn’t right for every organization, so this ability to disable the feature entirely or just the Restore button is very helpful.

The Previous Versions feature is super nice, but can be a tad bit too powerful at times. Restoring a previous version of a file is ideal, but restoring at a folder level can have implications to all files below the folder.

I’ve had several NetApp customers ask me how to remove and this is what I’ve found:

You can disable the entire Previous Versions tab, or just the actual Restore button.
