If the retention policy was set to say 2 weeks and then you set it to 1
week, you now have multiple retention rates.

How would I check which media have multiple retention rates and change
them from 2 weeks to 1 week?

Also, if I just wait 2 weeks, will the media that has two retention
policies switch to the 1 week retention?

Overview:

Change backup clients 1,2,3,4,5 from a 2 week incremental policy to a 1
week policy

Backup Clients



[a] -> original policy =3D 2 week retention [incremental] -> change to 1
week retention (in NB GUI/Admin Console)

[b] -> original policy =3D 2 week retention [incremental] -> change to 1
week retention (in NB GUI/Admin Console)

[c] -> original policy =3D 2 week retention [incremental] -> change to 1
week retention (in NB GUI/Admin Console)

[d] -> original policy =3D 2 week retention [incremental] -> change to 1
week retention (in NB GUI/Admin Console)

[e] -> original policy =3D 2 week retention [incremental] -> change to 1
week retention (in NB GUI/Admin Console)

Must I change all the 2 week retention policies to 1 week retention, or
after 2 weeks will the 2 week retentions expire and the 1 week retention
take over?
