I am new to TSM application and am running version 5.5. I want to understand the differences between backup and archive as the terms are different from my previous backup solution.
I believe I have backups working properly and the data retention appears to be working fine.
However, my historical data is not. With my previous backup solution, I was able to have several rotation/retention schemes running. Those schemes were daily which expired media after 6 days, weekly which expired media after 3 weeks and monthly which expired media after 60 months.
Is a similar scenario possible with TSM? If so, do I use backup or archive? Are there best practices for TSM?
