Hi All.
Going back through my email (been too busy to check for awhile).
You can actually set the browse policy of the saveset to be equal to the
longest retention policy of a clone copy. You use the nsrmm command. You
obviously cannot set the browse policy longer than the retention policy when
you first do the backup as NetWorker does not allow this.
I believe that the browse policy applies to a saveset as a whole (not to the
original ssid/clone id of the first backup copy). For example
The site I am on does a backup to pool MascotDL and clones to
MascotDLCloneD. In addition, the first full backup of December is cloned to
the yearly pool which has a retention of 3 years set on it.
You can see from the first mminfo command that the browse policy is set to
2009.
I then set the browse policy of the saveset to be equal to the retention
policy on the yearly clone. You can then see that the browse policy has
changed for all copies of the saveset.
The browse policy seems to apply to the saveset itself and not an individual
clone copy. This makes sense when you think about it. There isn't 3
seperate indexes for the saveset, just 1 that references 3 saveset copies.
Lastly, you can see that the clone retention is still set to 1/feb/2009 and
does expire when it reaches it. Once the original backup copy has expired,
I can still go and browse the backup to recover files
