How Recycle Bin Works

Recycle Bin has two stages:

• First stage: When you delete a file from your site or My Site, it goes into the "end user" recycle bin, and stays there for up to 14 days from the time you deleted it. You can remove the file earlier by manually removing (or restoring) it. Items in the first stage count against your site quota. If you deleted the file accidentally, you (or the site collection administrator) can restore it. To restore an item from this stage of the recycle bin, click Recycle Bin, check the box next to the item to restore, and then click Restore selection.

• Second stage: When an item is removed from the first stage, it goes to the Site Collection Recycle Bin, where it remains for another 14 days before it is purged (i.e., removed entirely). Items in this second stage do not count against your site's quota. The size of the second stage is equal to one quarter of your site quota (i.e. with a 10 GB quota, an additional 5 GB is allocated to the second stage Recycle Bin). If you exceed your second stage quota, the system automatically purges the oldest items to make room for new items. Only site collection administrators are able to access and restore files in the Site Collection Recycle Bin. To restore an item from the Site Collection Recycle Bin:
1. On the site actions menu, select site collection
2. Under "Site Collection Administration", select Recycle bin.
3. Check the box next to the item or items to restore, and then click Restore Selection In the confirmation box, click OK.

Error 0x800700DF: The file size exceeds the limit allowed and cannot be saved

This is the error which drives me crazy for more than 5 hours and finally able to found out the resolution for this. If you face any issue while uploading a file to the sharepoint document library then first thing obviously we will check the file size upload quota for file by means of SharePoint Central Administration.

it would be a good questions or i can called it as mystery when i was working on this as what would be the resolution for this ??

No need to worry as this issue has been resolved and you dont have to waste your time, just like i had spend.

here is the resolution:
1-Open Windows Registry using regedit command
2-Browse to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WebClient\Parameters
3-Right click on the FileSizeLimitInBytes and click Modify
4-Click on Decimal, and type 4294967295 and click OK
5-Restart Web Client service using Services

Create site collections

You can create new top-level site collections when you create your Web application or any time later using the Create Site Collections option in Application Management. You can create a top-level site collection using either the root URL of an unextended Web application or a managed path such as /sites or any other wildcard inclusion path you have created.When creating a new site collection, you will provide the following information.

• Title and description
• Website address using either the root of the Web application or a URL path
• A site template that will be used to create the new site collection
• A site collection administrator and a secondary administrator if required
• A quota limit template if required

Make sure  to choose the correct Web application before creating the site collection so the collection is available in the correct Web application.

If you have any queries regarding the above mentioned information then please let me know, Thank you

create a new quota template

Site quote templates are used to restrict the amount of content a site collection can contain. By default, there is one quota template defined for the user’s personal sites (My Sites). This default quota setting is 100 MB of data for each user’s My Site.

1. Click Quota Templates.
2. Select Create A New Quota Template.
3. Select a template to start from; the default is New Blank Template.
4. Specify a name for your new quota template.
5. Specify a maximum storage limit for this quota template in megabytes (MB).
6. Specify a warning storage limit for this quota template in megabytes.
7. Optionally, specify the number of points that can be reached by user solutions.
8. Optionally, specify the number of points that must be reached to trigger an e-mail warning to be sent.

Calculated	48	Threshold	28 bytes
GUID	6	Threshold	20 bytes
Int	96	Threshold	4 bytes
Managed metadata	94	Threshold	40 bytes for the first, 32 bytes for each subsequent

List and library limits:SharePoint 2010

Limit	Maximum value	Limit type	Notes
List row size	8,000 bytes per row	Boundary	Each list or library item can only occupy 8,000 bytes in total in the database. 256 bytes are reserved for built-in columns, which leaves 7,744 bytes for end-user columns. For details on how much space each kind of field consumes, see Column limits.
File size	2 GB	Boundary	The default maximum file size is 50 MB. This can be increased up to 2 GB, however a large volume of very large files can affect farm performance.
Documents	30,000,000 per library	Supported	You can create very large document libraries by nesting folders, or using standard views and site hierarchy. This value may vary depending on how documents and folders are organized, and by the type and size of documents stored.
Major versions	400,000	Supported	If you exceed this limit, basic file operations—such as file open or save, delete, and viewing the version history— may not succeed.
Items	30,000,000 per list	Supported	You can create very large lists using standard views, site hierarchies, and metadata navigation. This value may vary depending on the number of columns in the list and the usage of the list.
Rows size limit	6 table rows internal to the database used for a list or library item	Supported	Specifies the maximum number of table rows internal to the database that can be used for a list or library item. To accommodate wide lists with many columns, each item may be wrapped over several internal table rows, up to six rows by default. This is configurable by farm administrators through the object model only. The object model method is SPWebApplication.MaxListItemRowStorage.
Bulk operations	100 items per bulk operation	Boundary	The user interface allows a maximum of 100 items to be selected for bulk operations.
List view lookup threshold	8 join operations per query	Threshold	Specifies the maximum number of joins allowed per query, such as those based on lookup, person/group, or workflow status columns. If the query uses more than eight joins, the operation is blocked. This does not apply to single item operations. When using the maximal view via the object model (by not specifying any view fields), SharePoint will return up to the first eight lookups.
List view threshold	5,000	Threshold	Specifies the maximum number of list or library items that a database operation, such as a query, can process at the same time outside the daily time window set by the administrator during which queries are unrestricted.
List view threshold for auditors and administrators	20,000	Threshold	Specifies the maximum number of list or library items that a database operation, such as a query, can process at the same time when they are performed by an auditor or administrator with appropriate permissions. This setting works with Allow Object Model Override.
Subsite	2,000 per site view	Threshold	The interface for enumerating subsites of a given Web site does not perform well as the number of subsites surpasses 2,000. Similarly, the All Site Content page and the Tree View Control performance will decrease significantly as the number of subsites grows.
Coauthoring in Microsoft Word and Microsoft PowerPoint for .docx, .pptx and .ppsx files	10 concurrent editors per document	Threshold	Recommended maximum number of concurrent editors is 10. The boundary is 99. If there are 99 co-authors who have a single document opened for concurrent editing, any user after the 100th user sees a "File in use" error and have to view a read-only copy. More than 10 co-editors will lead to a gradually degraded user experience with more conflicts and users will have to go through more iterations to get their changes to upload successfully.
Security scope	1,000 per list	Threshold	The maximum number of unique security scopes set for a list should not exceed 1,000. A scope is the security boundary for a securable object and any of its children that do not have a separate security boundary defined. A scope contains an Access Control List (ACL), but unlike NTFS ACLs, a scope can include security principals that are specific to SharePoint Server. The members of an ACL for a scope can include Windows users, user accounts other than Windows users (such as forms-based accounts), Active Directory groups, or SharePoint groups.
