Re: Can TSM locks file during backup ?

Expire Inventory

When expire inventory runs.. in what order is expiration processed? I would thought it would be in alphabetical order, but it does appear to be after closer examination. I wish we can expire inventory by the node name. That would be cool. Thanks, Sung Y. Lee Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
