I'd like to repeat a tip I got right here on the list: multiple management
classes for TDP for Oracle can be quite handy. Every management class
should have the same retention policy, but you can vary the storagepool
destination.

That way, you can send e.g. your archivelogs to a diskpool and regular
backups directly to tape by using the RMAN FORMAT parameter and the
INCLUDE-option in the TSM API configuration.
