I don't have a netware server at the moment to try it myself, but
I would add the following include statement to what you currently have.

INCLUDE USR:\...\*   COLLOCATE

Now if the output of the 'select * from backups' command really shows the
management class name as STANDARD and not DEFAULT, then your problem is one
of two things.  You have another INCLUDE statement in your dsm.opt at the
bottom that you didn't post that specifies STANDARD.  Or you have a client
options set on your TSM server that is being used.

Also be aware that directories get bound to the management class with the
longest retention, so make sure the 'select' output was for a file object
and not a directory object.

The way TSM works is, if the client doesn't specify a management class via
an include statement, then the managementclass name given to the object is
DEFAULT, not the name of the default management class.

The select output shows that all the files being backed up, even as
recently as last night, are still using the STANDARD mgmtclass.  Below is
the configuration information you asked for in your note.

Thanks for any help.

Run a "select * from backups where node_name='NODENAME'" from
the TSM administrative prompt.  Find out what management class is
being used.  If the management class is DEFAULT, then either the include
statement doesn't match the objects being backed up, the management class
does not exists in the active policy for the nodes domain.  The management
class may not exist because there was a syntax error in the include
statement, the policy was not activated, or the node does not belong to the
domain where you put the new mgmtclass.

For trouble shooting post the following.
q node NODENAME  (replace nodename with the appropriate value)
q mgmtclass DOMAIN active (replace domain with the domain from q node)
dsm.opt (from the node having the problem)
