ARCHIVE !

I tell clients, if they HAVE to have data for a SPECIFIC period of time,
archive it into a management class with the required retention period.

I try to only give them 1 3, 6, & 12 month management classes...
anything longer than that and I make them archive to a specially registered
node name, I export that data, send the export tapes offsite and purge that
specific info out of my TSM data base ;-)
