Then may I suggest backupset tapes to be made with a five year
expiration on them. Backupsets are created from data already stored
within TSM, they can be given any expiration date desired, and moving
the data to tape will allow you to get the filespaces cleared out. (It
also gives you the added option of local restores without the use of
your TSM server. It has the disadvantage of not allowing a search for
a desired file by browsing--individual file restores can only be done
from a backupset if you know the entire path and file name of the
desired file.)
