Does this mean that I cannot change the management class
on a "dsmc" command line to indicate that on one day the files
in directory "/abc" are to be kept for 1 week and that on another
day the same files in "/abc" are to be kept for 4 weeks?
We have a requirement to perform weekly backups that are kept
for 6 weeks, monthly backups that are kept for 12 months and
annual backups that are kept for ten years. I thought for these
backups, monthly and yearly, separate management classes
would work. If not, how are other site dealing with this?
Thanks,

Some issues/problems you can run into:
- Backup versions of files that were included but are subsequently
excluded
will be expired the next time incremental backup runs. In other words,
the
exclusion is for all backup versions, not just for any that might have
been
created while using that version of the include/exclude list.
- If you change the management class on an INCLUDE statement, all
existing
backup versions of files affected by that INCLUDE will be re-bound to
that
management class (i.e. you can't have Monday - Friday's backups bound
to
one management class, and Saturday's backup bound to another -- all
backup
versions of the same file must be bound to the same management class).
In general, I wouldn't recommend flip-flopping include/exclude lists
around,
although I don't have the specifics of your particular situation.
