Hi All Running TSM 5.1.6.2 on Solaris 2.7 I have been trying to add a new management class to just one dir and all sub-dir's on one of our Solaris clients. I have been doing this with the following steps :- 1) Create a new management class called RETDEL750 under the STANDARD policy domain. The STANDARD backup copy group under the new man class looks as follows :- Policy Domain Name STANDARD Policy Set Name STANDARD Mgmt Class Name RETDEL751 Copy Group Name STANDARD Versions Data Exists 3 Versions Data Deleted 1 Retain Extra Versions 180 Retain Only Version 750 Ok, so I'm happy that this means keep files deleted from the client backed up for 750 days. 2) Now, I validate and then activate the STANDARD policy set. This works fine. 3) Assign the new management class to the required dir with an include statement. As follows :- include /app/production/.../* retdel750 Now, the problem I have is that the backup for the following night shows some strange behaviour for all clients using the STANDARD policy domain in that all clients see a lot of files being rebound. But I would expect to only see rebound files for the client and dir with the include statement. Is this a bug, or am I missing something here (or just being stupid and doing something wrong)?
