Re: binding inactive (deleted) files to new mgmt class
2006-10-19 04:27:42
I am pleased to say that this works perfectly. (I have a 5.2.4 client, so the
delete backup is not an option)
Following the deletion of the dummy files, and another incremental, the
original copies of the files are discarded, in accordance with the copygroup
rules for the new mgmt class.
Thank you all for your advice.
Adam

I was not aware that this function can be used to rebind objects.
