See my earlier response to this append.

There is also something in the append below that is not correct
that I wanted to point out.

Data Protection for SQL 5.2.1 does not "manage the backups and
delete the expired backup by himself". That was true with the
very old version 1 of the product. But starting with version 2,
Data Protection for SQL uses TSM Server policy management.
Again, the BACKDEL parameter setting has to do with a
technique that Data Protection for SQL uses for deletion
of temporary TSM Server objects that it uses in unique
situations such as a change in the management class.

Thanks,

Del
