I don't think that would necessarily make a difference as to whether files
are being bound to that management class, though... the QUERY COPYGROUP
output suggests that the management class and backup copy group exist (but
I wonder how much that was edited, since "query copygroup" should show
more copy groups than for just the one management class, based on what
info we have).

I would question other attributes of this management class, too, since the
name leads you to think "one year", but the VER* and RETEXTRA settings
seemingly contradit that (though I don't know what RETONLY is)... but that
isn't directly related to this problem, either.   :-)

The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
The command line is your friend.
"Good enough" is the enemy of excellence.
