Re: [Networker] need to change clone id expiration date

Actually I think I had it backwards, it's browse which is non-unique -
it's limited to be less than or equal to the shortest of any retentions
of clones
from nsrmm:
-w browse time
Specifies the browse time for the specified save set
(supplied with the -S option). Note that once the save
set becomes recoverable, the browse time may not be
changed. The browse time should be specified in the
format that is acceptable to the function
nsr_getdate(1m). The browse time has to be after the
insert time in the save set record, but it cannot be
after the retention time. If the option -e was not
used, the existing retention time in the save set
record is used for comparing with the specified browse
time. See under the option -e for more details on
retention time.
-e time
When used in conjunction with the -S option, it sets
the clone retention time of the specified save set or
save set clone instance. The retention time should be
specified in the format that is acceptable to the func-
tion nsr_getdate(1m). If a clone identifier is not
specified all clone instances will be updated with
specified clone retention time. The save set retention
time will reflect the longest recoverable clone
instance retention time. It is possible for a clone
instance to have a retention time less that browse
time. However, the save set retention time may not be
set such that the save set would become recyclable
while it is still browsable. Refer to the -w option
for more details on browse time. When used in conjunc-
tion with volumes, the volume labeled will be an
Archive volume if the value of time is forever (Archive
volumes mean that the volume label never expires). Any
other value of time are not applicable to a volume.
That's why it wouldn't work for us, we wanted one clone to expire after
a month, but another to be _browseable_ for 2 years. So I had to make
them all browseable for 2 years and manually delete some.
My apologies!

That's not how it was working when I gave up on cloning - I use 7.3.3
now - perhaps that was 7.3.2 then?
Frank, Can you do a report on a saveset and it's clone to demonstrate?
something like this:
mminfo -q ssid=[some saveset which was cloned] -r
"ssid,cloneid,sscreate,ssbrowse,ssretent"
thanks in advance
Jerry

If you look at the nsrclone command, its -y parameter sets the retention
time of the cloned copy of the SSID's. So, it appears that retention
times are unique per cloneid (and that's the way I find it is working in
practice with 7.3.3 here).
