All,

ADSM Server 3.1.2.40 on AIX 4.3.2
ADSM Client 3.1.7.0 on AIX 4.3.2

I have a request from a user to archive files in a directory that are older
than
7days and then delete them. The delete option is easy enough but I did not
find
any "fromtime" archive option to specify particular dates.  I figured I
would
create a script that basically did a find command with the mtime option and
then
feed that into the dsmc archive command line. The problem I have here is
that
the amount of files is in the range of 20,000 and I do not believe adsm can
handle that amount of input parameters.

I would be curious to see if anyone has ever had a similar request and how
they
handled it or if anyone knows how many input arguments the command line can
handle.

Thanks in advance...
