I think the problem is that the client definition contains: > File Retention = 30 days # 30 days > AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired Jobs/Files This causes it to prune the file records of *all* jobs for that client whenever it prunes *any* job for that client. Assuming you need that file retention for other jobs on the client, you can work around the problem by adding a separate client definition for use by the archive jobs, with the same Address pararmeter as the normal one. __Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
