Old files appear in the passive copy after a restore.

Causes

A database copy might not have seeded properly to the other node.
The database copy has an error.

Resolution

After the restore is complete, you must resume the Storage Group copy manually. This deletes the old files in the passive copy and then reseeds it before replication is resumed.
