A little query which I am sure you will all think "thats obvious"
I have some clients that have been decommissioned and the user has said can
you
remove them from the schedules, but keep the data for a year.
If the clients are removed from the schedules and/or decommissioned so they
can
not back up, how will expiration processing affect the data.
I am pretty sure that active versions will be retained until I delete the
filespaces after a year, and that inactive versions will go after 60 days
including the only version of a file already marked as inactive. But that,
because no new backups are happening, no more files will be marked as
inactive.
Are my assumptions correct and will exactly the same apply when we upgrade
to
TSM.
Our ADSM is Version 3, Release 1, Level 2.40
The default backup retention is
Policy Domain Name: NWSTD
Policy Set Name: ACTIVE
Mgmt Class Name: STANDARD
Copy Group Name: STANDARD
Copy Group Type: Backup
Versions Data Exists: 3
Versions Data Deleted: 1
Retain Extra Versions: 60
Retain Only Version: 60
Copy Mode: Modified
Copy Serialization: Shared Static
Copy Frequency: 0
Copy Destination: NWSTD
Thanks,
John
