By default, when a file is deleted from the source, WCN automatically deletes its replica from the bucket as well. You can set WCN to delete just the instance of the file on the source, but keep the copy on the bucket. In this case, to retrieve a file deleted only from the source, you have to manually synchronize the contents of the source and the bucket (see Synchronizing Data on the Source and the Bucket).

When you set WCN to delete just the instance of the file on the source, to delete it from the bucket as well you should access the bucket and manually delete the file.

When using the default delete mode, keep in mind that the copy of the file on the bucket is deleted only after the specified time interval in the Data Replication policy elapses.

Configure the Delete Mode Setting

In the left pane, select Global Settings.
Select the Delete replica when source file is removed check box to let WCNremove the replica from the bucket upon deleting the file from the source volume.
Or, clear the Delete replica when source file is removed check box to let WCN keep the replica on the bucket upon deleting the file from the source volume.
Click Apply.
