Expiration is by node number.  Numbers are assigned when the node is
registered with the TSM server.  Using the beginnode and endnode
parameters of the expiration command you can perform selective
expiration.  To get the node numbers use these case-sensitive commands
from a dsmadmc session.

create sqltable Nodes Mynodes
select c0,c1 from Mynodes order by c1
drop sqltable Mynodes

Subject: [ADSM-L] Expire Inventory

When expire inventory runs..  in what order is expiration processed?  I
would thought it would be in alphabetical order, but it does appear to
be
after closer examination.  I wish we can expire inventory by the node
name.  That would be cool.


Thanks,
