Re: [Veritas-bu] retentions

Do you
not keep month end backups for 12 months? I do not know of a way of doing this,
other than importing the tapes that may have been used for this job (assuming
you know what they are).
I dont
think NBU behavior works like this - its a fixed retention period (that I can
see). You could either do month end backups like I mentioned with a longer
retention (and store these tapes in a safe or off site), or increase the level
of retention for the future.
For
now, thats all I can see that can be accomplished (other than an import). 2
weeks without a server sounds daft.... probably a development box that no one
cared about, until it was too late :-)

We had an issue where was server was down for over 2 weeks
and the last full backups expired. The retention for this environment is 2
weeks. After the tapes expired the App team decided they wanted to restore.
Now management wants Veritas to extend the retention period automatically if a
full is not successfully run. I do not know of any company that has this
capability so I am looking for ideas. I do not think it would be possible for
a person to manually track all the servers and their last full and then
manually bpexpdate the images. I have pushed back with the question of why was
this server allowed to be down for 2 weeks but nobody is answering.
