Keep in mind that settings that TSM uses in the dsm.opt and dsm.sys
files do not necessarily affect TDP operations. (For instance, normal
expirations do not affect databases backed up with TDP for SQL.) Most
TDP applications have their own utilities for performing functions such
as retention, expiration, and other operations.

Review the manual, and look in www.redbooks.ibm.com. There is a redbook
on TSM and MS Exchange.
