How does the reconcile process in geodatabase work?
The geodatabase is designed to efficiently manage and support long transactions using versions. The reconcile process detects differences between the edit version and the target version and flags these differences as conflicts. If conflicts exist, they should be resolved.
Can You reconcile and post edits to a traditional version?
You can only post changes if the target version has not been modified since you last reconciled changes. If the target version has been modified in the interim, you must reconcile again before posting. Once changes are posted, they cannot be undone, since you are applying changes to a version you are not currently editing.
Is it possible to compress the default version of geodatabase?
You can also check the SDE_versions table to see if the state ID for the DEFAULT version has returned to zero. If it has and there are no other outstanding versions, full compression has been achieved. It may not always be possible to reconcile, post, delete versions, and disconnect all users before compressing.
How are versions created in enterprise ArcSDE geodatabase?
