I think you just need to wait for 60 days.
But you need to understand next relationship:
Node (dsm.opt in Windows, InclExcl list in UNIX) --> Management class --> Copy
group (you are hire).
If your management class is default, you do need to do anything. If you have a
few management classes for domain and modified class (copy group) is not
default, you need to edit dsm.opt or include/exclude list.
To control expiry process:
1) connect to node using your management class;
2) start TSM Client GUI;
3) select restore;
4) click View-->Display active\inactive files;
5) check file C:\Program Files\Tivoli\TSM\baclient\dsmsched.log or any
other file , which is updated daily - it should be 1 active version and some
number of inactive files. This number can show you current expiry period, but
if you increased expiry period just now, you will see one more inactive file
every day till new expiry date is reached.

Hi All,
I have updated copygroup to "type=backup verexists=nolimit
verdeleted=nolimit retextra=60 retonly=60"
and, ACTIVATE all my POLICYSET.
Then, Could you please tell how can I check it works or not?
Because, I found some files have been kept (since 12/22/2009) , but some
files still missed(maybe say expired).
(just have two policyset, and change them all)
So need I modify any other setting in TSM ?
Such as "update domain backupretention=60" ? and anyother ?
-------------------
Another question how can I modidy archiving time to 3 years?
Many thanks!
Best Regards,
william

If you REALLY want to keep data in TSM for 60 days, you need
Update copygroup DOM_SRV ACTIVE MC_90DAYS type=backup verexists=nolimit
verdeleted=nolimit retextra=60 retonly=60
Otherwise, multiple backups run during a day can result in files expiring in
less than 60 days.

I would take a look at the RETExtra/Only parm of the copy group, they manage
the data by date instead of versions. Managing retention time using the
versions parameters can give some unintended results (an extra backup of a
changed file will reduce the period you can restore from for instance).
Kind regards,
Karel

Yes, but it is better to use 60 instead of 59.
