No it doesn't, depends on what versions of TDP you have. With TDP SQL 2.2 you can do normal versioning like you would for "plain old NT or unix files". With TDP SQL prior to 2.2 and for TDP Oracle (all versions as far as I know) you set Verdeleted =0 Retonly=0 (Per manual) The Oracle RMAN scripts actually do the deleting, the difficulty depends on the verion of Oracle you have.
If you have TDP SQL earlier than 2.2, then as I recall you setup copy group similarly (check manual) and you have to either delete manually from client or with ver 1.1.2 they provided an "autodelete" on client that you could set to run and delete versons over certain number of days. A last email at night answer. David Longo >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 05/02/02 09:33PM >>> I'm in the process of setting up TDP for Oracle and SQL. Can someone tell me if the co group definitions work the same for all of the TDP products. For example. I've set up TDP for Exchange as follows... VDE no limit VDD no limit REV 60 ROV 60 And I expect this to keep my exchange data available for 60 days. On day 61, my first backup should expire (I hope). Does it work the same for TDP for Oracle and SQL? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
