Hi Jerome,

I am not an expert on TSM Server rollbacks, but here are
some options that I can think of:

- Restore your TSM database back to before the backup with the shorter
policy.
  This has ramifications that I am sure you are aware of.

- If your data is on tape, and the tapes have not been written over, you
could
  possibly salvage them. You would need to contact your IBM account team
  to start this process.

Thank you,

Del
