Michelle,

All you have to do is define a management class with the proper retention
period, don't forget to activate the policy set. Then from the client run
dsmc archive -dirmc=thenameofthatmanagementclass (This binds the archive to
that specific management class) This is the key option you need. Use
-subdir=yes if you want subdirectories and then specify the folders to
archive. You can add -description="Whatevername you want to give"
