How does the W2K SIS Groveler service work?
Does it change the size of the image after the image has been uploaded to the server?
or
Does the SIS Groveler service change the image size during the image upload?

Thanks in advance.

SIS (Single Instance Store ) locates duplicate files that is larger
than 32 kb and replaces them with a link to a master copy of the file.

SIS uses two components: SIS NTFS file system filter driver and SIS
Groveler service

For more info, see below articles

and the Groveler Service
