Expiration






Good Morning.
I have a question about expiration.
I have a 90 day policy for data on the servers(Versions Data Exists -
Nolimit, Version Data Deleted - Nolimit, retain Extra Versions 90 and
Retain Only Version 90).  My question is how can I tell if data is being
expired and how many files on a particular machine?  What I checked is a
machine that is backing up everynight with about 2000 files(SYSETM OBJECT)
but the file count keeps growing.  It's been 95 days since the 1st backup
so I would have thought the file count would be leveling off.  I see when
expiration runs that the server is listed for each of it's filespaces but
I have no idea how many files if any it expired.
The TSM servers is AIX 5.2 with TSM 5.2.2 and the client is Win2K with TSM
5.2.2
I want to make sure that the old files are expiring so we do not keep
growing in size.  It's one of many machines so the final count for how
many files expired in expiration does not tell me which machine it came
from.

Have a Great Day,
Eric
