Would appear that all is ok then, with the new retention periods in
force.

Thanks you for the clarification on this point.

Try this:

Start the backup/archive GUI client on any system that you can get to,
with
files you think had a lot of versions under the old default rules.
Click the big RESTORE button.
Navigate to some files you think had a lot of versions under the old
default
rules.
Scroll to the far right, you'll see the management class the files are
bound
to.

I believe you'll flind that the DEFAULT management class is a special
case.
Instead of saying "STANDARD" or "FILEPRINT30", the files just say
"DEFAULT",
and it's in the TSM data base that way.
So no rebinding is necessary, and the rules for the default management
class
will be in effect.

As further verification, If you pull down from the menu VIEW ->
active/inactive, you should also see that no more file versions exist
than are specified in the current default mgmt class/copy group rules.
