Each location is defined as capable of storing either a single version or multiple versions of each object at any one time. When a new version is transferred to a single-version location, its ancestor is displaced. In a multi-version location, however, the new version will exist alongside other versions of the object that are already there.

Physical locations must also be defined as either single-version or multi-version. For more information, see the article on physical storage.

Note: A location can only be multi-version if all of the physical locations it maps to are multi-version.

Single-version		Single-version working location
		Single-version library location
