Re: database expiration Problem / Domino TDP leaves old databases

But according to your policy settings you must now wait 60 days for actual 
data deletion (expire interval)

databases


Dear Josef,

your hint was successful, but only the tdp way. We could see, that after
doing a incremental backup there were 5500 transaction logs discarded. So
on the first stage we were happy.

But, the expiration of the db and the reclaim didn`t free up as much as
expected. It looks like that the expire only scans the first 1/5 of the 
db.
Therefore the expire discards only a very few db-objects and the 
aftergoing
reclaimation process could free up only a few tapes. The "funny side" 
(ouch
! ) is that the expire process ends always with a state of success. But we
could swear there MUST be a lot more db objects to inspect. Maybe this
happens some time before we dealed with the tdp stuff.

So I belive we have another problem, this time a db Problem.

Anybody any ideas ???
