This might be a dumb question, but I haven't found the answer yet.
For a bi-weekly retention on a dataset, networker appears to want 2 full cycles
on tape, which makes sense. It also seems to call nsrck (I believe) at some
interval to check if there are 2+ cycles, remove anything older than 2, and
mark tapes as recycled. (Not sure if this is all with nsrck)
The problem I'm running into is that I can't figure out the frequency with
which this happens. I have some tapes that should have been expired nearly a
week ago, but are not because the oldest cycle isn't being removed in a timely
manner. Is there a manual way to do this, other than clicking through the
interface and selecting remove oldest?
Thanks,
Dylan
