Thank you, Robin, for the confirmation of my suspicion. I understand
"special" (second) backups with different parameters. Can you give me an
example of "or data movements within the server?"

TIA

Yes, this is a major shortcoming of TSM, especially in today's litigious
business climate:  the fact that data retention in TSM is tied to
Management Class/Copy Group, and is the same throughout the storage
hierarchy and across storage pool backups.   The only way around it is
to
perform additional "special" backups and/or data movement within the
server.

Added VTL to increase capacity.

Dream wish: set Version Data Exists to 20 for vtlpool and to 2 for
copypool.

No way to accomplish that (there isn't a Santa, after all)?
