Do not think you are correct on TSM only keeps one version permission - I believe it would keep IAW the policy settings. Can you show the link which you are getting this info from. Thanks

And TSM only keeps one version of unix permissions. So once a backup is done with the changed permissions, there is no TSM way to restore them back to what they were before.

This is for a Solaris TSM client. Just let me know. Thanks so much in advance!
