Lindsay,
I agree wholeheartedly with you. This is not my doing and if you see me you
could actually see smoke coming from my ears. This one server has become a
real pain, not to mention the people who want all this crap. I'm not missing
the point believe me, it's this group of people.

I know ADSM knows where everything is and that takes a load off me and
others. Why these people feel like they have to know this kind of
information I have no clue. It really is annoying.

I do understand the idea behind the incrementals forever, unfortunately if
the file is deleted from the server so is it also removed from ADSM. This
data changes every 2 weeks, each database needs to be kept for 5 years once
it's removed. These are very large databases and there isn't enough room to
store that many versions in the library so I want to archive the data and
remove the tapes. I figure the only way to do this is an archive of the
particular databases every week.

If anyone has a better idea please help me out.
