That would be a combination of the "retain extra", "versions data exists", & "versions data deleted" options of the backup copy group.
If management says "I want everything for the last 60 days but nothing older then that" vde:unlimited vdd:unlimited re:60 (retain only:60 also) Now if by date, they mean June 10th 2002 or something specific like that... tell them "good luck" or you could update (and activate...) all your backup copy groups on a daily basis :-( Dwight -----Original Message----- From: Kleynerman, Arthur [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, January 08, 2003 10:29 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Retention policy for inactive files Hello all, I am faced with a situation where I need to delete all inactive files past a certain date, but keep all inactive version prior to that same date. Is there any way that this can be accomplished? I have a TSM server V4.2.3 running on AIX 4.3.3.
