hmmmm....... so would you define a new copygroup in the new domain with new retention rules using the same managment class (name)?

Joy, Our approach has been to create a separate domain which contain the same management classes that the data is already bound to. In this way, we can move the affected nodes to the new domain with no rebinding of data, and maintain the inactive as well as the active data. It also allows TSM to continue tracking and protecting the data We then, of course, expect the platform areas to restore the data they need to a separate location, so that we aren't stuck with open-ended interminable retention requirements that no one can agree to revert.... Hope this is useful!

Is there a way to exclude a group of clients from expiring any data for a time period? I see there is a way to do this for archived data. I'm talking incremental backup data. If I stop expiring altogether I think it wouldn't be long before I put my whole environment at risk. The only way I can think of to do this would be to rename all filespaces where I suspect there might be data I do not want to expire. This however would cause all those renamed filespaces to back up in full tonight. We're talking several TB of file server data. Any ideas? Sincerely, Joy Joy Hanna Enterprise Storage Group I.T.
