I'd be interested in the same info as regards NetApp client data, ie:
NDMP dump backups.

Subject: [ADSM-L] Long term data retention for retired clients

Hi out there,
Just wondering what the consensus is on the best way to retain TSM
client data that has to be kept for many years (legal requirement) after
the client box is retired.
I have consideredf various approaches
1) Export
2) Backup set
3) Create a new domain for retired clients which have the long term
retention requirement

I see export and backup sets as reducing database overhead, but being
less easy to track and rather unfriendly if you just need to get a
subset of the data back The new domain would retain great visibilty for
the data and allow easy access to subsets of the data, but you would
stiil have the database overhead.
Does the choice just depend, on how often in reality you will need to
get the  data back ?
Thoughts appreciated
John
