To my knowledge you can always lengthen and it should be fine. I tend to
move obsolete backups for servers we decomissioned into a long term storage
retention group for safe keeping. Like our exchange that only has 14 days
retention, we moved into a 365 retention in case we needed it after 14 days.

If I perform an archive backup, and after that archive completes change
the number of days retention in the archive policy (for example change
it from 120 days to 365 days) , will the archive backup I have just
performed retain the old policy retention of 120 days or will it be
updated along with the policy change and be kept for 365 days?
