Matt - From my notes at http://people.bu.edu/rbs/ADSM.QuickFacts :
Archived files, rebinding does not From the TSM Admin. manual, chapter
on
occur Implementing Policies for Client
Data,
topic How Files and Directories Are
Associated with a Management Class:
"Archive copies are never rebound
because each archive operation
creates
a different archive copy. Archive
copies
remain bound to the management class
name specified when the user
archived
them." (Reiterated in the client B/A
manual, under "Binding and Rebinding
Management Classes to Files".)
Beware, however, that changing the
retention setting of a management
class's archive copy group will
cause
all archive versions bound to that
management class to conform to the
new
retention.
Note that you can use an ARCHmc to
specify an alternate management
class
for the archive operation.
