Agreed Simon,
 
I have written a script to report on every image, which tape it resides on
and which file number each fragment resides on the tape, we have used the
report a number of times to retrieve info from tape that has expired in NBU.
We used this method as purely a get of jail card and not as rule of thumb as
data could quite easily be overwritten once the images have expired. If
tapes are shipped off site indefinitely then this would be quite
advantageous as long as the reports are kept, in that way you can keep your
catalog manageable and additionally have record of data off site.
 
Hope my two pennies help.
 
Dave

Bob
As long as you have the Media on tape, even if it the media has expired from
the Catalog itself, the tapes can be imported? That counts as being able to
retain the Data and restore it (although just not as quick!)

BEWARE that many times you are legally obligated to maintain 7 years of
data.
Unfortunately, you may be required to ALSO provide data past the 7 year
legal requirement IF you have it and IF you can restore it.
One company I was at, determined that infinity should only be 7 years in
order to avoid a court order to provide the older data.
They not only had me change the current policies to use a 7 year retention, 
they also had me recalculate the expiration dates on existing images that
were set to infinite (2038) retention.
That edict came from their legal department.

I am not a lawyer and I've never played one on the tele.

Guys
Regarding the "retension" setting under any schedule. After 1 year, it moves
from Infinity Level 9 to Level 24.
 
Just what level should be used it you want to retain something for say 10
years.
 
Thanks
