Files also remain on SharePoint side after being stored in ImageMaster and are not replaced by a stub (a reference to the file in the archive). Based on an internal file check it is ensured that the users in SharePoint always work on the same version as the corresponding one in the ImageMaster archive. If there is a difference though, the user will see an according message that the currently opened version in SharePoint has not yet been archived.
