# meta data files of process A
(1) -rw-r--r-- 1 tomcat6 tomcat6 1628204 Aug 7 16:07 meta.mets.xml
-rw-r--r-- 1 tomcat6 tomcat6 1628200 Aug 6 14:42 meta.mets.xml.1
# meta data files of process B (after open & save)
(2) -rw-r--r-- 1 tomcat6 tomcat6 1628204 Aug 7 16:09 meta.mets.xml
-rw-r--r-- 1 tomcat6 tomcat6 1082651 Aug 7 16:07 meta.mets.xml.1
Files (1) and (2) have the same content and size. Original data of process B is still backed up in (2). However, this backup fades away after a number of save operations on that process (number depends on backup configuration in GoobiConfig.properties).
Effect on the file system:
