[ADSM-L] TSM Incremental Database backups never expire
2011-05-20 14:47:34
Even though this thread is years old, I thought I'd post my solution in case it
helps anybody else.
I have a similar setup and was wondering how to files from disk using DRM.
Indeed the key is to process file based volumes in the same way as tapes. I use
the following commands to delete disk based backups older than 30 days from disk
My 'DB backup Series Expiration Days' is set to '30'
Set DRMDBBackupexpiredays 30
SET DRMFILEPROCESS yes
move drmedia * source=dbbackup enddate=today-30 wherestate=mountable
tostate=vault
When the backups are older than 30 days they will go into 'vault retrieve'
status. You can then issue the following command
move drmedia * source=dbbackup wherestate=VAULTRetrieve tostate=ONSITERetrieve
As the retention period for these volumes has expired, they are deleted from
disk.
