Hallo Ricky, each TSM installation/environment is different, but assuming, that you do a TSM backup every day, for me, 60 days seem to be too much.
I would suggest, that 7 days would be "enough". But thats also depending of course on your company's SLA prereqs/dependencies.

Juni 2014 18:32 An: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Betreff: SET DRMDBBACKUPEXPIREDAYS Question, I am running TSM 6.3 and running out of database space with nowhere to get more at the moment. My DRMDBBACKUPEXPIREDAYS is set to 60 days. I really don't think I need 60 days. I would like to change this number to 30 days and get some space back. What is a norm or an expected amount of days for this parameter? Ricky M.
