You keep your TSM Activity Log for years????

Our site keeps all logs from all systems for five years, using HSM to
make it realistic.  It is common to have many storage pool tapes
which were last written four or five years ago, and you may want to
review what happened in creating a tape back then, when you have
problems with that tape or its contents now.  And your auditors or
statutory requirements may call for goodly retention of such
records.  (The decision on how long to retain logs is not one which
the technician is best qualified to make.)
