We currently have a case open with Legato about this very same issue.  I
have had to write a script that recycles tapes manually after a certain
period which is WAY beyond the browse and retention policies.  All Legato
has offered me so far is that the savesets MUST have dependencies somewhere
else to still be browsable/recoverable.  I can't find the dependencies and
I'm really aggravated with this issue.  Any insight as to what I may be
doing wrong to cause this would be appreciated.  Otherwise, I will consider
this another BUG in the application.

Subject: Why is an old saveset still browsable?

Hi,

I have some savesets that are from 10/??/02 but still show up as
browsable on several older volumes. I can see this from the volumes
listing under nwadmin. This seems odd given the fact that the browse
policy for the affected clients was one month. One of the clients is no
longer a member of any active group, but the index has not been removed.
The other client is no longer listed in the client listing under
nwadmin, and it's client index is gone. I guess I could understand this
occurring for the one index that still exists because perhaps NetWorker
still sees the last runs as browsable since the index is no longer
getting updated, so:

1. Am I wrong about that?

2. Why would some of the savesets for the other index that no longer
exists still be identified as browsable?

George
