You bet. For the TSM domain where this server lives (you may only have 1 domain, STANDARD, which is the default), you create a new management class in the non-active policy set. You define new retention rules in the new management class/backup copy group.
You activate the policy set you just edited. On the client machine, you relate the file (or files) you want to be governed by the non-default rules to the new management class with an INCLUDE in the dsm.opt file: include *:\pathname\filename NEW_MGMT_CLASS Stop and restart the scheduler to pick up the changes to dsm.opt, if you are not using dsmcad. You can read all about management classes and setting rules in the Admin Guide. -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Nancy L Backhaus Sent: Tuesday, October 26, 2004 12:03 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Versions Data Exists Question Our management class is setup that the maximum number of versions permitted is 3, I have a customer requesting that wants to know if can keep let's say...6 active versions of only one particular file on a server.
