Once you update the client to see the new policy the next time the client is contacted for backup the other 80days of backup files for that client will expire. Only thing to watch out for is have many clients going through this expire process at the same time your log can fill...

I have a question on Policy Domain switching. How will the client handle a change in the Policy Domain if I change the Policy for a client? I have a Policy called 90DAY that is assigned to a client and created a new Policy Name called 10DAY. I updated the NODE to use the new policy(10DAY), "update node AFS99 domain=10DAY". I looked in the TSM Admin Guide and saw allot about creating policies, deleting policies, etc but nothing about how it handled changing which one you used.
